Ok, that was it apparently. Even with it enabled, I get 25000 blips, which don't makes sense to me. Its a p4 at 3.0 ghz with hyper thread disabled, software 3d, etc. I suppose I could try a pci graphics card over the pci express card. When I enabled hardware 3d, I got latencies in the 200K range.
My old p4 1.3ghz got better than this machine, but I got tired of waiting on it.
