I actually hit near 30 000 ns when I closed a tab i Firefox. If you really want to load FF, go to Smartclient.com or Vaadin.com and run the demo sites. Seems I've found a good reason to actually have a Raspberry Pi inside the cabinet, a perfect X host to unload the controller. I'm not in a hurry to replace the controller all of a sudden...
@Kent, Max base jitter(ns). Shouldn't be ms of course, my bad quick spelling slipped and I mean micro and not milli... The rumour said that the D525MW should be able to make it in the 3-7 micro region, seems not possible to me though. /S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management.
