Thanks!

I'm guessing that a user land app (in this case bonnie++) consumes CPU load for some reason.
I'll experiment whether my guess is correct or not by using usb 3.0 host like below tomorrow:
 - case 1: usb 3.0 host + usb SSD as SuperSpeed (IOMMU is disabled).
 - case 2: usb 3.0 host + usb SSD via a usb2.0 hub as high-speed (IOMMU is disabled).

Best regards,
Yoshihiro Shimoda
