Do anybody have experience of suggestions for this?

LinuxCNC already is split this way, though in practice almost(?) everyone runs the realtime part and the non-realtime part on the same machine.

This diagram shows where the realtime/non-realtime split is:

http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/code/code-notes.html#_architecture_overview

That diagram is a little outdated; it is from before HAL.

HAL spans the divide and lets realtime and non-realtime components talk to each other easily.

HAL is currently not network-transparent, so components on one computer can't make HAL net connections to components on a different computer. This may or may not be an obstacle for your use case.
