Could someone please check something for me
Could you simply create a new profile with the PNCConf tool (simple + fast mill) using axis / anything really.
load it and see if it is very slow.
I found that :
[TASK]
TASK = milltask
CYCLE_TIME = 100
was set
I believe
CYCLE_TIME = 0.010
should be the more correct number as it is measured in seconds
(I have done a lot of installs and reinstals from a clean LCNC iso + update to master via buildbot)
I hate calling "bug" but something went wrong for me and LCNC GUI's (I tried a few via pncConf) were very very slow... I thought I'd changed the wrong settings in the bios or something.... then changed Cycle_Time = 0.010 and all is happy now.
{note I had no problems with the QTPlasmaC sim I loaded just to test and headscratch).
I did ask for "Commanded" position and not "actual".... that was the only other chane I did on the GUI / Axis screenset in PNCConf

That's interesting had another customer complain about a similar issue,
must be that pncconf and Axis? GUI don't agree on units
The change to ms was done here
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/commit/8f2e...0164df7677d5857f0d8e

A more instructive commit:
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/commit/9bd5...b9f31bad0c6d967654a7
Axis should now make a reasonable choice about whether the number is seconds or mS.
(This is useful when switching GUIs)

thanks all, thought I was going mad (wondering what or how I broke things)
note, I had the same problem when I created a Gmoccapy GUI first with the config, then created an axis and a at dragon screenset with the same Pncconf. file just changing the GUI
I then formatted the drive and put a new lcnc install from buster iso 2.8, upgraded to master via buildbot.
created a new Pncconf with axis first (as axis always worked fine previous) and it was unresponsive too..... then went investigating the hal / ini file settings and found the 100 .... changed it to 0.010 and everything worked fine creating axis, Gmoccapy guis
glad I was able to help as I'm sure it may have confused others.
+ glad someone was able to work out what I was waffling on about and work out the potential problems / where the issue was.

What a mess I made
unfortunate- we were trying to make it easier to switch between screens. I just didn't read my code closely enough. This affected Stepconf too - fixed as well.
