AM4378: Alpha Overlay in Gstreamer lags noticeably while using videoconvert

Part Number: AM4378

Tool/software:

We are using the AM4738 processor to display an analog backup camera onto a 30fps 800x480 resolution LCD.  The image is fine until the green / yellow / red backup lines are displayed on top of the image causing unacceptable lag in the camera feed.  The issue has been traced to the AYUV alpha conversion.  There is no lag when the overlay does not contain the AYUV thereby showing the white background.  The lag returns when the AYUV and desired transparency is reinserted into the displayed image.  

Any insight into this problem is greatly appreciated. 

Below are the gstreamer commands with associated indications of lag

Not laggy: /bin/gst-launch-0.10 -ev v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! video/x-raw-yuv, format=(fourcc)UYVY ! ffmpegcolorspace ! fbdevsink device=/dev/fb0

Laggy: gst-launch-1.0 -v v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! videoconvert ! fbdevsink device=/dev/fb0 sync=false

Also laggy: /bin/gst-launch-0.10 -ev videomixer name=mix ! ffmpegcolorspace ! fbdevsink device=/dev/fb0 filesrc location=/opt/tco/M20_30_right.png ! pngdec ! videoscale ! imagefreeze ffmpegcolorspace ! "video/x-raw-yuv, format=(fourcc)AYUV" ! mix. filesrc location=/opt/tco/M20_left.png ! pngdec ! videoscale ! imagefreeze ! ffmpegcolorspace ! "video/x-raw-yuv, format=(fourcc)AYUV" ! mix. v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! video/x-raw-yuv, format=(fourcc)UYVY ! ffmpegcolorspace ! "video/x-raw-yuv, format=(fourcc)AYUV" ! mix.
