I agree. Python is not *that* slow... I have written serial port communications that send and catch one character at a time (raw, unbuffered i/o) - and they seem to work well at 38400 baud, sending and receiving almost four characters a millisecond, continuously, back to back, without any stress So to "get there" every twenty millis should not be a problem, unless the machine is a real dog. (i.e. older than seven years) Would not try to handle individual samples at 44 KiloHerz in python though... - Hendrik -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
