- * Commands has variable amount of processing time. Most of the commands will
- * be done in 0-3 tries, but some takes up to 50.
- * The real processing time was observed as 25us for the most of the commands
- * at 2GHz. It is possible to optimize this count taking samples on customer
- * systems.
+ * The average time to complete some commands is about 40us. The current
+ * count is enough to satisfy 40us. But when the firmware is very busy, this
+ * causes timeout occasionally.  So increase to deal with some worst case
+ * scenarios. Most of the command still complete in few us.
