MaximDL uses subframes that are very fast to download (I use USB 1.0 with no issues) and you shouldn't be sending mount corrections very frequently anyway.

Can you then enlighten me why all MaximDL windows show no change while image download is progress. Then the so called guiding slowly walks back to where it should be. Even the guiding pulses seem lethargic to the point of what seems to be overcorrecting in a tub of tar!

I found that a two second exposure was a bit better than something faster. It was still pathetic!
