Anyone know how well Firewire interfaces perform, when connected to a USB 2.0 port (or
even a USB 3 port?) using something like this:
http://www.amazon.com/CE-Compass-Firewire-Female-Adapter/dp/B00B1OQUS0/ref=…
I suppose one of those could possibly solve the USB timing problems; anyone have
experiences?

Read the Amazon reviews ... this doesn't convert much, except maybe a
cable (but then you'd need one on each end). It's function is a
mystery.

Have a look at the reviews. Such an adapter will not work because the
FireWire and USB protocols are completely different and cannot be mapped
to each other in the general case.
I don't know what that adapter is actually designed for. Maybe there
are laptops that have so little space that they share a USB connector
for both USB and FireWire controllers, or that thing is just meant to
make the FireWire power lines available for USB charging.
