The Siemens Gigaset ISDN base driver uses tasklets in its isochronous
data paths. These will be scheduled for each completion of an isochronous=

URB, or every 8 msec for each of the four isochronous pipes if both B
channels are connected. The driver uses three URBs for each pipe, always
maintaining two in flight while processing the third one. So the tasklet
has to run within 16 ms from being scheduled in order to avoid packet
loss (in the receive path) or data underrun (in the transmit path).

Does that qualify as performance sensitive for the purpose of this
discussion?

Thanks,
