I'll try and remember. It might be a while as the machine is at work and I'm off for Christmas.

I also ended up getting this mini PC GB-BXBT-1900 (MZBAYAB-00). As a starting point I looked into this post for BIOS settings. I also removed WiFi card from the PC. Did all the tests without network connection.

Running on stock linuxcnc-stretch-uspace-amd64.iso from 2018-10-27 17:57

Here is my BIOS dump:
Code:
BIOS Version: F9 CPU SMART FAN Function: Enabled CPU FAN Fail Detect: Disabled Wake system from S5: Disabled Intel Virtualization: Disabled EIST: Disabled CPU C state Report: Disabled SATA Mode: AHCI Mode CSM Support: Enabled LAN PXE OpROM: Disabled DVMT Pre-Allocated: 64M Onboard Audio: Enabled Onboard LAN: Enabled XHCI Hand Off: Enabled OS Selection: Windows 7 ERP Support: Enabled Restore AC Power Loss: Power On Secure Boot: Disabled Secure Boot Mode: Standard Fast Boot: Disabled

Results are kinda not impressive:
Servo: 210028ns
Base: 170048ns

With 6x glxgears and with various apps running

do your testing without the base thread as with Mesa ethernet hardware (which I assume you are using) you do not need a base thread.

210028 is still OK for Mesa Ethernet. Mine is around 120000
