Quest Link USB3 transmit latency significantly higher on Quest Pro
Hey all,
I recently got a Quest Pro (and shortly after, a Quest 2) and being the stubborn person that I am, decided to try writing an OpenXR driver for Quest Link to use on macOS and Linux, since Meta does not currently support these platforms (nor do I expect them to any time soon lol).
However while writing my own driver, I noticed that the Quest Pro consistently had worse performance. Looking further, I found that with the exact same resolution, encoding settings, etc, Quest 2's USB transmit is a stable 0.5ms, whereas the Quest Pro often crosses the 1ms transmit time.
Quest 2:

INFO [comp_ql_calc_frame_pacing] Avg: tx 0.556561ms, encode 10.065738msBoth devices are on v47, and `libusb_get_device_speed` returns `LIBUSB_SPEED_SUPER` for both headsets, so in theory they should be operating at 5000Mbit/s. It's worth noting that I'm including the cap'n proto preamble packets, so that's 0.4ms Quest 2/1ms Quest Pro across 3-4 packets (segment sizes + cap'n proto + optional csd + idr/coded slices).

I have the same performance issue as well. But more so when I use my app that has passthrough
