When you "set the simultaneous convert", do you mean you write  1 to
the top/simulaneous/temperature?

something like this?:
echo 1 > simultaneous/temperature
cat 1F.C4DC03000000/aux/28.C4027E010000/temperature
cat 1F.C4DC03000000/aux/28.0D337E010000/temperature

This doesn't work for me, it is slow.

Are you driving the "local" simultaneous files (like
1F.C4DC03000000/aux/simultaneous/temperature)

What version of owfs are you using?
Do you think I should upgrade?

I'm also running a hvac system which currently has period of about 20
seconds. Which is still ok for now.
But I'm going to extend it with about 10 more sensors, and I would
like it to be more reactive when driving the 4 way valves.

What platform are you using? I'm considering upgrading to an low power
intel atom (or d510) based PC or maybe dedicating a sheeva plug for
the hvac. My current router (asus wl500g deluxe) doesn't have a real
time clock so I need the internet at boot time just to get the time
for my hvac system to work.

Thanks for your help
