I am using servos with the Gecko 320.

I am familiar with the latency test, that is exactly what I was referring to. 
It reports two Max Jitters there and I did not know for certain that one was 
for servos and the other for steppers. Thank you.

Does anyone know of some known settings to try disabling in CMOS to possibly 
get lower numbers? My 1.0ms Max Jitter is under 9300, but if possible I would 
like to get it even lower.

Thanks!
