Thread speed in C++

Ouch. At the time I wrote the question, I didn't have access to the robot or the development environment, and was just hoping someone could tell me off the top of their head. I've since had access and figured it out on my own. We're only using it to isolate separate instances of our PID loops (for demonstration purposes), and our programming mentor and I deemed it's speed more than sufficient. We tested it using robot from last year and encoders to test running four consecutive loops on each of the independent drive motors (on blocks; not for driving purposes but to allow us to check and graph the speeds with a tachometer). I'll put up some graphs to show our results when I get the pictures off of the camera.
