Re: Interrupts per second

Most processors block further interrupts on a pin once the first one has been received

so unless you re-enable interrupts inside the interrupt routine, it will not be able to interrupt the interrupts - usually you enable them in the last instruction before you return, or in some processors, the return-from-interupt instruction itself re-enables them
