For recording movements at every 1/2 second intervals is the g-code file that you play back consist of a new line for each 1/2 second? So that every line of g-code is a x,y,z, and feedrate value for that 1/2 second interval. If so I think there would need to be some preprocessing of the G-code to remove redundancies. Such as if you move in a straight line from x0. to x10. at constant velocity the preprocessing would simplify the command to one line of code instead of showing what to do for each half second interval. In my own personal experience with building a CNC system I found the time it takes for the computer to interpret a line of g-code and break it down into machine motion very taxing on the PC. This may be why it doesn't work at high speeds on 1/10s intervals. (However, I'm not sure if this is true for LinuxCNC).
I'd be interested in learning more on your work so far.
