Not at all, go ahead. There are a few things I wish I would have
written differently, but it was a ml post and not an essay :)
The rt testing package is indeed called rt-tests and not rt-tools.
The reason I see max scheduling latencies of about 100us on the -rt
kernel with cyclictest is most likely due to using the -i100 parameter.
Setting it lower would likely result in lower max values, but at the
cost of increasing cpu use.
In fact I think the max scheduling latencies on my system is more
likely around 40us or so, but what really interests me is to know
that I don't have max values into the millisecond range.
