Ug!!! This is getting bad. Give me some time. I plan on releasing a new

with the latency issues. I also know using ARM assembly we can greatly
reduce the latency issues.

MS: (n) 1. A debilitating and surprisingly widespread affliction that
renders the sufferer barely able to perform the simplest task. 2. A disease.
