There doesn't seem to be any pattern emerging yet as to which USB 
devices cause problems and which do not. For want of a better 
explanation, I've assumed some USB devices upset realtime performance 
because their drivers enable DMA activity.

If this hypothesis were true, then devices requiring fast service of 
large data blocks likely would be bad choices.

Without more explicit guidelines, my approach has been to avoid USB 
connections like the plague.

Any thoughts?
