Are there some information available on the net about PCI latency ? I have had
trouble with a framegrabber application and X:

The framegrabber ist programmed as busmaster and transfers the data to main
memory. Running X is possible, but if I changed the X screens there are data
losses on the framegrabber transfer. My guess is, that the X-server post's the
complete screen to the video card and hoogs up the PCI Bus during that
transfer...

Thanks for any pointers/help on this subject.

Greetings
