Yea. I just took a look at the data that we have, and we're seeing
more like +- 15us on machines here without temerpature stability
beyond "normal HVAC" and stock xtals on the motherboard. This is
after we've done the fast interrupt hack. Without it, the other
system activity was causing enough interrupt latncy variance that we
would see more like +- 80us with outliers way off in the weeds
(+- just under 10ms!).
