You should use the patch I sent to do dynamic clocking if you're
concerned about performance.  That patch improves performance by
a factor of 8 compared to anything possible by increasing the FIFO
depth.

I am very much of the opinion that deepening the FIFOs is just a
sticky plaster over the problem - and I said as much when it was
first proposed, pointing out that there's other better solutions.
