Which kernel version are you using and how are you driving coda-vpu
from userspace? Can you reproduce the issue without the network
streaming or display parts?

Could you use perf top to find out where the CPU time is spent?

Is the decoder still fed frames at 30 fps after resume? You could use
ftrace to trace the coda:*, v4l2:*, and vb2:* trace events to verify
this, and to check whether the hardware still is processing frames at
the expected speed.
