How does your test differ?
The major difference is we are reading an I2C 9DOF IMU model GY85. Works great, but maybe the I2C is slowing things down. I did a quick estimate and thought the time would be about 1 to 2ms, but maybe there is more overhead than I guessed.

I guess we just need to try the measurements again.
