Meanwhile, I got 2 more of my camera devices to play with and got the
following (somewhat exiting) results. All tests where performed with my
patched fx2_programmer and the ex3.c test firmware.

1 FX2 connected: 1 * 32 MB/sec (means 32 million bytes)
2 FX2 connected: 2 * 24 MB/sec
3 FX2 connected: 3 * 16 MB/sec

Looks like there is a saturation at around 48 MB/sec. I am completely
happy with that.

The earlier mentioned maximum 54 MB/sec, were they meant to be mega
bytes or million bytes?
