Untill now, the maximum transfer rate I could achieve is ~11 MB/s. I’ve tried this with different kernels with and without DMA enabled.
Could anyone get more than this? If so, how can I achieve that?
Thank you!

I am having transfer rate issues as well. My post over on BeagleBone group has gotten zero attention.

In my case, the BBB cannot handle the video throughput of my camera, meanwhile a Rpi can.

I can also confirm ~10MB/sec transfer rates with some testing I've
done. This was some time ago, maybe 6 months, and with Angstrom.

Just to let you all, and anyone else know my own findings . . . I setup a rootfs to load from an external USB hard drive( last year-ish ). I found that writes were as high as 20MB/s, but reads were around like the both of you seem to say. 10MB/s. So my own numbers seem to jibe with both of yours as well. At least for reads.
Also as far as I know there was no DMA involved, and I could not say for sure which block size I used . . . maybe I posted that in an old post, but I do not remember. The methodology I used for testing was dd( /dev/zero to disk ) and time, together. So nothing fancy.
Just as a reference on my test result
I use usb gadget network and run iperf as benchtools

Hi,
I’m not sure if this is relevant or not … maybe Robert or someone with a better understand of these things would know … ???

I’d say it is not fixed

So you have a crappy usb-flash drive... How do we know that's the usb
bus speed and not just a slow drive.

There will always be open points...

fair point … I should have the same drive on my desktop with
