This won't be much of a problem if your goal is to set speed, but it could prevent you from specifying an output position based on the encoder.

Runs at 100MHz each for 4 cores, but I need to do port read/write tests. It should only take one clock tick per reading, but now I'm wondering how I would report results without losing some functionality. I could just add another XMOS and run encoder readings on 4 cores.
