?? The in-tree driver doesn't support inbound flow control yet. Just
outbound (us hushing when the other side asks).

When I fired up the inbound flow control mode on the new driver, I
didn't get any overruns at all. Even at 57600 baud, nearly saturated,
with compression fired up (so I got 12 kB/s transmission).

I suspect that the act of reporting an overrun can delay things enough
to generate another. :-)

Take care,
