Steve's original link for why software timers are a bad idea  was from 2002.

Since then we have had fantastic improvements in 
  a) cpu performance
  b) latency of the kernel 
     - anyone tried the low latency kernel & software times?
  c) the overall kernel code.

I think it is a reasonable question then:
 Are software timers still a bad idea?


Does anyone have some realworld experience on a recent machine & software 
timers to prove they are still a bad idea?
