How close to being real-time is this communication over usb?
If I recall correctly, its turn-around time is between 2ms ~ 20ms.
In our system, the

Am I right in thinking that you are using your own custom firmware on the 7i43?
Does the 7i43 work through the mesa_hostmot2 HAL driver, or do you
connect at a different point in the data flow?

I mentioned the 7i43 since it also has a USB port but cannot be used.
It has been made to work on USB with EMC2.

One of the hackerspaces I worked with in the past just modified a Taig
for CNC. One of the members tested a SmoothStepper from Warp9
http://www.warp9td.com/ and really liked the increase in performance.
The group was discussing modifying the setup to a SmoothStepper, and one
of the posters
This gives a hardware overview..

the smoothstepper is a buffered style device as the transmitting device
is not realtime. It isn't a good fit with emc and there is a lot better
more robust/flexible hardware for emc (imho). (some

case?
Yes, EMC2 does not currently support any USB devices for motion control.

Yes, Sorry Jon. I normally try to mention both, and Motenc too. (I
think we have agreed to deprecate Pluto)
