I went through a "trying all the kernels" about a year ago, with no 
significant improvements to the issues I was having.

More details about your issues would help those with more experience than I 
give you specific advice.


While things continue to improve, the state of the art on Beaglebone for 
hard real-time appears to be the "Machinekit" images that run a port of 
LinuxCNC on a Xenomai patched kernel and use the PRU for stepper motor 
control.   

Even so, I don't think a Xenomai process can do much better than ~70-100 
uSec, hence the usage of the PRU for stepper motor control which may need 
more like 20 uSec or less.
