I forgot to mention... This is *almost* the same as moving some
of the subsystem code into a seperate high priority task. For
example, LCD refresh code is executed in the 1ms timer ISR.
It really doesn't need to be in the ISR. It can do it's job
just fine in a seperate task. I think this LCD code is the what's
pushing the general 1ms interrupt to periodicly take a full 150 us.
But, I think I'm digressing here, so...

P.S. Ralph, speaking for myself, I find all this quite enjoyable
and it doesn't bother me a bit to reinvent the wheel. As long as
it's fun (and educational), that's what Lego is all about. ;-)

| (...) 250msec? Not blocked entirely, but delayed. That's what I meant by "stutter". I've measured the general interrupt handler to take anywhere from 70-150us. So, the higher the sample rate the more significant the disruption. Anything faster than (...) (21 years ago, 15-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
