The data rate over blutooth should be heaps fast enough for some log data
No, it's 100% something to do with Bluetooth. If I force the same protocol/data rate with Bluetooth, there's still a delay. USB is effectively instantaneous. This is with OBDLink SX USB and Torque from last night actually. I gave my Bluetooth adapter away so I can't show a comparison but there's somewhere on the order of 300-700ms delay with Bluetooth.

So, basically, I agree the data rate is fine. Actually, the OBD data rate is 500 Kbps which translates to around 250-300 PIDs/sec. SSM can only be faster. My gripe is the latency makes live gauges just kind of... barely acceptable?
