[PARPORT] Parallel port DMA channel usage

I've just started using an external SparQ drive with paride, and everything
works great. But the performance isn't that great, and the machine grinds to a
halt whenever I transfer large amounts of data to/from the disk.
 From what I saw, paride makes no use of the parallel port DMA channel. Is
there any way for it to do so ? My machine is a P5-133MMX, Linux 2.0.33, paride
0.94.

 thanks,

 Christian.
