Re: Task scheduler

A clarification (since Bryan and I gave pretty different answers...)

My response applies to coding in C (or even in assembly).  Bryan's response
was for using the Java runtime.

The timeslice among tasks is 8ms or until a task goes to sleep.  You
cannot change this value.

Every 4ms the useriopoll entries are run.

If your poll function takes 4 milliseconds, you should consider moving
it into your application.  Your 4ms routine would push the 4ms iopoll
frequency out to 8ms.
