Hey Steve

Do you have to use 2 computers? Can you run linux with a windows VM for
processing? Your ZMQ performance of piping samples within the same computer
may be faster and more deterministic, but may not work for your situation.
Also, Ive used ZMQ lots. I recommend using ROUTER/DEALER or DEALER/DEALER
architecture. Its worked the best for me.
