This week, we switched to using a different laptop (a Dell Latitude D610) and the lag problem has gone away completely. We believe our problem was due to the Classmate, rather than the robot!
Yes, we were also seeing other concerning symptoms such as the robot continuing to operate for up to about 5s after it should have been disabled via the driver station. This was observed when disabling by pressing the space bar or clicking on the "Disable" button. The Classmate in question had been re-imaged to Windows 7 using the (unmodified) memory stick provided in the KoP. Other than activating Windows 7, the only other thing we had done to the Classmate was to install the latest driver station update.
