Nicely explained John, thanks.  I'll drop that branch of development. 
No stand-alone fast GPIO for the 7i43.

If you turn off all the servo and stepper channels and just use it for 
the 48 gpios, the refresh rate will be about 15 KHz.  As you add more 
and more stuff in addition to the gpios the refresh rate drops.  With 24 
GPIOs and 4 servo channels, the update rate is about 5 KHz.
