The only sure way is to do a readback in Channel::frameViewFinish,
since your channel might contribute to the rendering, i.e., not all
data making up a frame is present in the Frames given to
Channel::frameAssemble. This has a performance penalty, as you've
observed.
You might play around with PBO transfers: have two eq::Images which
use PBO, syncReadback on the previous frame's image and startReadback
on the 'current' image.

Nice to hear. What are you doing with Equalizer?
