ok, i just tried to transfer 7 mbytes file from one box to another using 
bluetooth 2.0+edr dongles and obexapp.

i can confirm that throughput is nowhere near bluetooth 2.0+edr 
throughput. i basically get around 55 kbytes/sec (around 440 kbit/sec) 
which is way too low.

i do not think that this has anything to do with the dongles or the 
stack (because i demonstrated about 2 mbit throughput with lan profile 
and ttcp), so it could only be either obexapp itself on openobex library.

btw, what tool did you use on ubuntu linux to transfer files over obex? 
can you tell it uses openopex library as well?

in the mean time, i'm going to take a look at obexapp and see if i 
goofed anywhere.

yes
