Snapscan problem

    Hi Snapscan experts everywhere,

    I have just updated Sane for the first time since I updated the Snapscan
    driver last spring to correctly merge the colours, and to work with my
    Acer 610+. I have updated to Sane 1.0.4, xsane 0.72, and the
    snapscan-11282000 code from Sourgeforge. Now I get something odd.

    I am using RedHat 6.2, with all the relevant update RPMs, plus a stock
    Linux 2.2.18 kernel I needed to get USB working (not for the scanner,
    though). My scanner is an Acer 610+ (SCSI) connected to its own private
    Adaptec 2840 card (aic7xxx.o driver, as a module).

    The scanner scans, but sometimes stops for maybe 10-15 seconds of total
    silence, then continues for a bit, then stops for another 10-15 seconds,
    then continues. The final result eventually looks correct.

    The machine is fast (700MHz Athlon), the SCSI card is capable of high
    performance, and there is nothing else happening on the machine during
    these scans.

    When I used Sane 1.0.1 with the snapscan driver I modified, and xsane
    0.59 I never saw this happen.

    Can anyone shed any light on this?

    Regards,
    Steve
