It's odd. The usbmon log shows things working pretty well most of the
time, with transfer speeds around 200 Mb/s, but every now and then a
single 120-KB transfer takes more than half a second!

I have no idea why. We can rule out hardware problems because it
doesn't happen under Fedora. Maybe interrupt delivery gets delayed
somehow under Ubuntu, or maybe something is different in the xhci-hcd
driver. Can you compare the driver source files?

To do more serious testing will require you to build your own kernel,
or at least, your own version of the driver.
