Thank you Austin, One of these days we will have Kernel Day to see what gives with Thomas's new patches. In the mean time I get 45usec max latency under heavy disk io with the 3.2 kernel on some cheap 5 years old Foxconn board (1600Meg duo core) and no midnight surprises, so I am smiling. It averages between 3 and 4 usec. When did you post that module? I did not spot it going through the discussion on rt-users. cheers, j.
