I have seen some apps which seem to schedule themselves using some kind of SCHED_FIFO and therefore seem to get good RT: from an ini file... # This option determines the multi-tasking capabilities of WinDEU. # The priority determines the minimum number of milliseconds WinDEU # will work before giving control back to Windows. # For example, if you set it to 20, it means WinDEU will gives # back control to Windows approximately (at most) 50 times a second. # A value of 0 means WinDEU WON'T multi-task. # (Can be changed in the preferences dialog box.)
