I did not do the G93 test myself but one of the other members did. The
gcode is on the thread

Can you attach a G code program that uses G93 that demonstrates the issue
you’re describing with your INI config file you’re using?

Have a look at this forum thread where all the testing was done and the
problem discussed as it was encountered. Everything that you mentioned here was
tested and the results are not always as expected.

The single line look-ahead is only a limiting factor when commanded g-code
segments are shorter than what your acceleration settings can achieve the
commanded speed in. For example if your machine is configured for 100in/sec^2
acceleration and milling at 90inchs/min it would be able to maintain full speed
through g-code with segments a little less than 0.01 inch long without any slow
down due to single line look-ahead.
Don't be confused by the huge slow down potentially caused by not using G93
(inverse time feeds) when you should be for mixed linear/angular commands.
That slow down is caused by the F feed rate being applied in degrees/min
limiting the moves speed (a 10 degree move at normal F90 will take 6.7
seconds.) A move will always be limited by which ever is slower the move's F
speed in degrees/min or distance/min. If a combined move's degrees moved is
greater than the linear distance moved, then the feed rate of the angular move
will be controlling the time of the move. Switching from inches to mm in your
G-code could also have a big effect, making the F settings 25.4 times larger,
and therefore the angular moves 25.4 times faster.

The latest software on the Pocket NC is using the same trajectory planner as
what is in LinuxCNC.
I haven’t followed the whole thread. What seems to be wrong with the trajectory
planner when doing 4 or 5-axis?
The trajectory planner only has one line look ahead for any rotary axis.
So this means that trajectory planning is not really happening and performance
is very poor when trying to achieve faster moves.

The problem seems to be that our trajectory planner lack the

coordinated move that includes a rotary move will be dysfunctional at best.
It's not as bad as that.
There is a 9-axis blending planner in Tormach, but it's not trivial
to merge it with Linuxcnc due to divergence in the codebase.
If we could get hold of the patches that introduced it to Tormach
then we could look at integrating it, but doing it just from
comparing the code sounds hard.
