I think it's the wrong approach to try to make task respond in real time. It is not a real time process. It runs in userspace and therefore there are no guarantees. I think you need to reexamine your setup and find a way to do everything that needs to be fast in real time. You might investigate whether you can find a way to use motion's adaptive-feed or feed-hold inputs to hold the material in place while punching. These work in real time. If a motion is pending and you deassert them, the machine will start to move at the next servo cycle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The ultimate all-in-one performance toolkit: Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE: Pinpoint memory and threading errors before they happen.
