And today I did. Running 2x2 GB RAM to maximize the I/O. Latency test, one glxgears and a Firefox to linuxcnc resulted in 15 849. Turned the graphics resolution down to 1024x768 and I was able to keep it a bit lower, But only a bit as I passed 14 000 for the same test. I still don't believe in you guys saying that a D525MW is able to stay below 10 000 in a latency test. One thing though, I filled one of the boards with 8 GB RAM (2x4). That board is running 64 bit Ubuntu in the office and it happily reported 8 GB even though the hardware spec says max 4 GB. It seems that 4 GB is a soft limit. /S ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
