Sensing RPM with the kit encoder.

Can the CRio keep up with the counts from the kit encoder if it's on a shaft rotating at 2500-3000 rpm? I'd like to run a velocity PID on our shooter. IIRC, the kit encoder doesn't have an indicator pulse, meaning you'd have to count all of the pulses. However, I don't know how many PPR the kit encoder has.
