Using OpenMP inside orocos components?

Hello :)

I am working on parallelization of a part of an control algorithm
which is on the other hand wrapped in orocos component. Two things I
am thinking of are:
1. How usage of OpenMP can affect real-time performance?
2. Since I want to execute this control algorithm in real-time
(sampling rates >= 100 Hz), I am very interested in latency.

Does anyone have any experience with this matter?

Best regards,
Milan

Some people at our lab did use it and had a small problem. I'm CCing
them so that they can share the results ...

Hello Sylvain,

Thank you for quick response. I would very appreciate if your
colleague would share his experiences.

Best,
Milan
