Extended testing over one hour shows significant improved CPU usage
and stability:
The old CPU usage is about 12% +/- 5%. The new CPU usage is 4% +/- 1%.

The setup is an i7-4600U laptop running Kinect v2 with 260MB/s
isochronous and 20MB/s bulk transfers.

The improvement in reducing jitter is particularly preferable to
Kinect v2 driver because the isochronous data is structured and one
packet lost means discarding a lot of data.
