We use a heartbeat it times the 'error' in time between the last trigger and the conclusion of the heartbeat. (i.e. if your code takes 25ms and your heartbeat is 100ms, it will wait 75ms). We're using Thread.sleep since the Java library is still using Thread.sleep instead of an actual hardware timer

EDIT: Whoops, i misunderstood. We do reads and writes as we go along. Since the RIO non-volatile storage is flash, we've tested that just reading from a BufferedReader is fast enough to not cause hickups
