Win7 Guest - using devices/webcam - slows down tremendously

I've given up, for now, on using web cameras/webcam, as it only gives me a black screen, so I try to use usb devices/webcam. When I do that, it works, but it slows down the guest so severely that it is unusable.

Any way to resolve this?

Did you install the guest additions in your Win7 guest and are 2D and 3D enabled for the guest?

Yes, still incredibly slow webcam. If I do passthrough, I only get black screen film webcam.
