That certainly puts it in the running!

Given my heavy custom build platform and 12 V stepper supplies, the
accelerations aren't all that spectacular: X = 15 k mm/s^2 and Y = 5 k
mm/s^2. The Z axis uses the stock motor, which isn't well suited for
microstepping drive, and runs at 1000 mm/s^2.

My Sherline runs X and Y at a sleepy 5 in/s^2 = 125 mm/s^2 and Z at 3
in/s^2 = 75 mm/s^2...
