i7s usually have more cache (i7 3770: 8MB, i5 3570: 6 MB), which should/could result in better latency. So, it was a wise decision to take an i7....I opted for the I7, although I am not sure if it will make difference with everything turned off in the BIOS.
So: congrats! And if you ever were, you are certainly no noob anymore... so getting this all up and running with Mint on a new PC and posting the results was for me, a Christmas miracle.
In Bios, the most important part is to disable evrything that smells like power saving and hyperthreading....I had set multiprocessor -> disabled in the BIOS, Is this the same as running with Isolcpus?
while playing with bios version, note: hp says you cannot roll back to an earlier version. Usually because ther seemingly are "security" reasons. Isolcpus does disable cpus, but lets you chose which ones. If you read more, you will see posts where someone got best results isolating the lower cpus and others with isolation the upper cpus. Therefore, I prefore leaving multi core on and use isolcpus. There are machines out there, where isolcpus is of zero effect.On your machine, BIOS 2.99 appears to have the best numbers. I will update to 2.99 and try that out.
I will also take at modifying the Grub command line to see if I can improve the results further.
I tried to get a clearcut overview here . That's for a dell optoplex 980 though, but I hope, it is inspiring enough to at least serve as a hint for other pcs.
Are you asking me to post the BIOS settings up to this point or to post the additional changes once I complete additional testing?Kindly also state, what options you altered.

I will add a hint stating exactly that when a basethread is being used.

Set the base period higher than the latency result shows, at least 20 to 30% higher.

As you can see - and that was the very purpose of leaving/protocolling the very call for the latency test in the script's output - the very command is there in every output (quote taken from your post):
I myself do have, say a certain doubt too. If you run the test without a base thread, then the servo test results seem to return about double the values as with a base thread. I cannot see areason for that, raised my doubts, but so far, noone jumped in with an explanation.
So, maccsddau, I am with you raising at least an eye brow.
The script does nothing but logging hardware, prepare automatically glxgears, webbrowser, the commandline for latency-test and log the temperature, latency data and later more. I have written lcnc-hw to provide say a "standardized" way to occupy the pc while running the latency test and collect info of the pc. The main goal still is to provide repeatable and comparable results. I did not and will not mess with the core programme: "latency-test". I might later look into the code of latency-test to see or understand what causes double times for servo thread when running without base thread compared to with it.

How Latency test are reliable ?

Command for latency test is:

Did you disable the extra cores in BIOS?
In my testing, I found that that was better than turning them with isolcpus= statement. I took extensive data over the weekend but did not have time to post.

very low values, especially in regard with the smal cache! This one should run very well for software stepping (par port). Can you shed a light on the mobo used and the ram size you have installed? I also wonder why ny script is not able to detect the rams. Could you run some commands for me (I'll post a question over in the scripts thread , once I can resume working on it {might be late January only I am afraid})?
Your "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT" uses some parameters, that I did not consider so far. So you got me inspired, thanks a ton!

My 8300 offers the option to disable the parport. Sinceyou're looking for servo performance only, I'suggest you disable it there, if possible.
Absolutely yes. The command logged IS the very command executed.Maybe you are putting the finger on the right spot. But then, I have logged runs, that let me conclude, it should be OK. I came to the conclusion, it could be "--nox". This is noted to be tested, which I cannot do right now. Patience till juanuary, as I plan to provide an option to run the x based diagramm instead of logging latancy to the lat file. I hope I can get a clear conclusion then.

can be eliminated using:
sudo echo "install pcspkr /bin/true" >/etc/modprobe.d/pcspkr.conf
Check if snd modules are loaded: Yes, may cause bigger latency.
can probably be disabled in bios, alternatively, you can run
"./block-snd-modules"
which has just now been created for your convenience.

I have an AMD Radeon Graphics card that I removed because it seemed under the basic Latency tests my numbers were worse. Any thoughts on why that would be? I did run the script to shut off my sound so I'm rerunning the test now with the sound shutdown.
Below I've added the changes from the above entry with that Video Card/GPU installed -
