I had the logic in my original message wrong, canBlock=Yes is what a slow device should be using.  When you run asynReport if any drivers show canBlock:No then those are the ones that could be slowing down the scan task.

You're right, the canBlock flag is in fact "Yes". Is this how it should be for simple telnet-like StreamDevice communication over TCP?

Thanks,
