Previously for every bit scanned OpenOCD would write the bit, wait for that bit to be scanned, and then read the result. This involves at least 2 context switches. Most of the time the next bit scanned does not depend on the last bit we read, so with a buffer we now write a bunch of bits to be scanned all at once, and then we wait for them all to be scanned and have a result. This reduces the time for one testcase where OpenOCD connects to a simulator from 12.30s to 5.35s! Running all our tests went from 13m13s to 3m55s.
