It wasn't a question of believing. That my xenomai timing is out of any
acceptible range is not a question. That my slave is not able to send the
requests in time, too. What I was just wondering about is the fact, that a
master on the same machine is able to do cycle times under 2 ms (same
behaviour with two identical cloned machines, so no hardware problem). If
you tell me, it's nevertheless the Xenomai problem, I have no doubt it is
like that. I will report what 2.6.2 will do.

Greets and a nice weekend, Nadym
