Robert,
I've been using a 486/133 with an RT linux interrupt driven serial communications
program at 19,200 bps ... no problem. I'm pretty sure the UART is a 16550.
You did say ANY experience..... ;-)

Subject: [rtl] re: maximum sustainable baud rate
What is the maximum baud rate one could reasonably expect to hammer at a
LINUX/RTLinux serial port? Would 115200 baud be doable?
Any experiences would be appreciated.
PS.
I have a query from someone who is evaluating LINUX/RTLinux as a possible
candidate for his project. He wants to pump digitized voice at 8k per
second into the serial port of a LINUX box. He claims that DOS-DOS on
similar hardware works fine.
I'd do a quick experiment here but I don't have the right mix of hardware
to do even the simplest test.
PS2.
I'm trying to steer him toward letting me write an RTLinux "driver" for his
digitizer card and then eliminate the serial port entirely.
