The usage of videobuf-vmalloc allows to cleanup em28xx logic. Also, it reduced its size by about 5.42% on i386 arch (and about 7.5% on x86_64): 39113 4876 40 44029 abfd old/em28xx.ko 36731 4868 40 41639 a2a7 /home/v4l/master/v4l/em28xx.ko Also, the preliminary tests, made on a single core 1.5 MHz Centrino showed that CPU usage reduced from 42%-75% to 28%-33% (reports from "top") command. A test with time command presented an even better result: This is the performance tests I did, running code_example to get 1,000 frames @29.995 Hz (about 35 seconds of stream), tested on a i386 machine, running at 1,5GHz: The old driver: $ time -f "%E: %Us User time, %Ss Kernel time, %P CPU used" ./capture_example 0:34.21: 8.22s User time, 25.16s Kernel time, 97% CPU used The videobuf-based driver: $ time -f "%E: %Us User time, %Ss Kernel time, %P CPU used" ./capture_example 0:35.36: 0.01s User time, 0.05s Kernel time, 0% CPU used Conclusion: The time consumption to receive the stream where reduced from about 33.38 seconds to 0.05 seconds.
