(I expect that can rule out hardware problems). Since I've never seen this behavior myself (and neither have people doing very high log routing tests with these cards, such as Robert Olsson) I plan to start putting together some debugging patches for analyzing this TX hang. If you could run those test patches when I post them and give the log messages they produce, I'd appreciate it.
