Well I have to check this a bit more for all possible answers regarding why
standard linux may not be suitable for Realtime. Also I haven't looked into
2.3.x kernels regarding these issues so I could be wrong.
The 1st thing that comes to my mind is
Kernel is single threaded: This _can_(For linux the way its done I am quiet
