Usually when I run a latency test I start with no programs running, start the latency test, then start a few instances of glxgears, open Firefox and try a few other things.
This should test what affect opening and starting a few programs has on latency.
Currently, if I have it right, the only IO access in the script is writing to the file stores the results. There’s no opening and closing files and no starting the running and closing of any programs ?
I don’t know if that would make much difference.

You are correct: Other than glxgears, firefox and writing .lat and .hw file.
I guess that resembles a lot of how axis will work ?
If needed, I can add an file io load. But as laid out above: I do not believe that is representing how LinuxCNC works.

The idea of the latency test is to stress the machine, whilst running the test. I think it's actually mentioned in the docs or somewhere, to open & close windows & move files around.
You can even influence the results by changing the IO scheduler. Mount options can have an affect as well.

I'll check the possibilities to do a suitable io load. Will put the discussion over in
this thread

Here are the test results of my sister's lenovo thinkpad X301. A very nice slim little machine, but hopless for Linuxcnc.

Hi all
These are the results of a Lenovo L540. I think, it could be used for Mesa based machining. For over an hour it was at about 60'000 nS. I do believe, there is room for better latency. The laptop does have a pci express slot. Thus I will retest it with the available parallel port pci express card I have and add the results as a diff in this post later.

My conclusions, limited to the hp 8300 sff tested:
- isolcpus defintely plays a role
- bios version too

Are these result good? Or am i doing something differently?
