If you ran the default setup for the master on an AT91, you already
generated a scenario like this: The master's Sync frame is then directly
followed by its payload slot (offset 0). If you want to drive this
further, you could add another slot to the master's setup. Use the
advanced setup mode (TDMA_CONFIG=... in rtnet.conf) and modify the
master's slot list like this:

master:
...
slot 0 0
slot 1 0 1/1 1500 1

Probably not dramatically: It will add periodic non-preemptible hardware
access to your real-time workload. Depending on how tight your schedule
will be and how long those interaction my take (can't tell as I don't
have a target to test), this /can/ be problematic. By disabling it, we
remove one further aspect one has to consider for the real-time design
of the system.
