I doubt the hotplug process is that slow, even on a 100-MHz 486-class
machine. Have you tried setting the delay_use=0 parameter for
usb-storage?
Haven't tried that since the hack we implemented worked. Hotplup has been faster for me lately
since I removed all of the unusual devs we don't support on our platform, and the extra USB products
that were listed in the Hotplug usermaps for USB. It's not just hotplug, but the EHCI/OHCI drivers
detecting the different hups in the cards, usbserial and airprime doing their thing, which all take
some time. So total it's about 20 seconds when a card is inserted before we can tell PPP to dail a
connection.
How do you logically eject/insert a card?
/sbin/cardctl eject
sleep 5
/sbin/cardctl insert
