1. Lags. Are those normal for my setup (no native USB3 support onboard)?

Central monitor is plugged directly into native miniDisplayPort (thus exhibiting fast almost invisible refresh rate). Two side monitors hooked into D3100 (both HDMI outputs). D3100 plugged into USB3-to-expressPort/34 card
ECUSB3S11 from Startech which is operated by MacBook Pro 17" (Late 2009).
2. After wake-up, it seems like screens loose their memory of what each one was displaying before going asleep.
- Leaving an application window per screen
- Entering sleep mode
- Waking up
- Application windows are not on the same screens or invisible (staying on 'previous' screens which can not be seen anymore)
- The only solution i found is minimizing all windows and then rearranging them again to the same locations on 'fresh' screens.
Is this behaviour related to the same usb3-to-expresscard feature? Anyone with similar issues?
3. For programming (working with text) this slower refresh rate on side monitors is not an issue.
