One, a motor controller, receives many hundreds of interrupts a second from an encoder, yet I've never had a problem (actually, while doing some testing, I found that I could handle a peak interrupt rate of just over 5,000 interrupts/sec and still see no wierdness).

I admit I was being a bit agressive: I have a 1000 count wheel on a servo motor as my test. I estimated around 1200-1800 RPM which gives 80-120K interrupts a second.

Even with the fix, that interrupt rate crashes the EDU system. It seems that 10-20k/sec is about as fast as it can go. Which is good since a 2 segment wheel on the back of a Boch motor generates about 5k/sec at full speed.
