Ethernet performance was improved quite a bit by the introduction
of the etherusb kernel driver - before that, packets were going between
usb and ether queues via a user space process.

Any further improvement will probably be bounded by the simple synchronous
i/o model of usb in Plan 9 (built for comfort, not for speed).
