I was able to sync your test sample to OSX and Linux with the stock
pilot-link code (not even triggering libusb yet, which is benchmarking at
about 6x faster than native in-kernel syncronization) at 1m37s for your 30k
record test file (PWC_Stems.pdb; 25,155 records total) The other file
syncronized about 10 seconds longer than that one (PWC_StemIndex.pdb, 31,972
records total).
We're not doing anything magical here, just dealing with the data in
a more efficient manner. Does your sync seem to go faster on OSX if you keep
the HotSync window modal, with focus? I know there are some really bad
issues with that on OSX, if you minimize or background the HotSync window.
I'll keep doing some testing, but we're *WAY WAY* ahead of the sync
times you reported previously on this topic, using our own codebase. With
libusb, we should be seeing that entire sync time under 40 seconds total.
