Mini PC for LinuxCNC/CPU Realtime Performance

this is great, thanks for the info! what do these results indicate regarding how good this setup is for the linuxcnc application? im new to linuxcnc so the raw data doesn't mean much to me...

With Mesa cards latency isn't such as issue as with using the Parallel port. I think the rule of thumb is under 100000ns is good for a mesa card, for about 99% of uses, cos I know someone will have an example that breaks the rule of thumb. Or my numbers may be wrong.
Unlike one forum I can think of we dont have p*$##&€ contests.
If it works and does the job reliably that's the goal.
