I could see that in a mill with a high speed spindle, (but who is going to 
spindle synch a 70k rpm engraving spindle anyway?) but in the case of my 
toy lathe thats now wearing a 5" chuck, between the weight of the chuck, 
and the mass of the combo fan & flywheel on that 1HP motor, sheer mass of 
what needs to be reversed seems to put a lower limit of about 1.5 seconds 
per reversal done from 300 rpms while running a loop that makes a peck 
cycle out of the G33.1 function.  Z accels under those conditions are maybe 
1% of what that z is capable of.  A G0 move can be as high as 60ipm with 
the new ball screw setups.

Cheers, Gene
