You all are "inventing problem". Solve them AFTER you find a problem you can measure. Interrupts are not an issue on a UP like the AVR because they are completely deterministic. It don't matter the lenth of time as long as it is 100% deterministic and predictable. On a multi-tasking OS running on a super scaler CPU you have unknowable latentcy but this is not the problem on a chip that does one machine cycle per clock cycle.
