I am sending the output from a multiplexer to the Nios. At the moment I am sampling the the multiplexer at 100Hz / 8. (8 Channels)

The Nios is then connected to the PC via ethernet, using the mirco os or whatever it is called. I have two sockets open, one to send data and one to recieve commands.

When tryign to increase the sampling rate, >200Hz my server on the pc crashes becasue data is missing on the input, i guess being lost in the Nios.

Any ideas? I guess my limited sampling rate must be 200Hz. Is this correct as seems slow?
