The problem is solved - SDRAM memory to which the data is transfered supports 4
bytes burst mode. In case of 16 bit elements it was slowing down.

I work with TMS320C6713 processor. I have a strange problem now - I want to use
EDMA to transfer 16 bits elements instead of 32 bits. And it seems the transfer
is slower. I didn't measure the time differences, but the data is spoiled
in the 16 bits case if it exceeds some length. Becuase the process is periodical
I conclude that by 16 bits the speed of the transfer is low and data at the
source address are rewriten before they were all tranfered to the
destination.
Is it possible, that the EDMA speed depends on bits per element ?
Everything is the same by EDMA configuration - the source, the destination,
options ... etc. except ESIZE field of EDMA OPT register.
To solve this problem it is quite important because I can spare 1/2 of allocated
memory if I would transfer only 16 bits instead of 32 !
