The untuned Avision backend (again a copy of the Tamarack one when I started to adapt it for Avision scanners in 1998 or so) was never (!!) that slow! You might simply throw your scsi adapter into a garbage-can! I have an Adaptec Ultra-SCSI controler (AIC-7861) and a (lowend) NCR Ultra-SCSI one. Giving me both the same good performance even when plugged into a Pentium-I 120Mhz ... The unmodifed Tamarack code had the same speed as the windows driver - and some reported a speed improvement of the factor 5 (!!) when scanning under Linux (ok - this might have been a Win~1 problem - not a Linux feature ;-)). My tuning yield some 5 - 10% of extra performance. (ok - my scanner is still much slower than the new Epson USB onces :-((() > Thanks for the suggestions. > = > = > =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D > ing.
