IIRC there were lots of issues with USB split-transactions and
the RPi Foundations guys worked very hard at solving them. I
don't know the end of that saga. You should check if this
problem is solved well enough (and may be run Linux on the pi).
You may be better off using BBB if you want freebsd. There is
also the $37 odroid-c1, with separate 1G ethernet & USB + 1GB
mem + quad core A5 but you'll have to run linux.
