keyword=re: buffered mode (BEWARE)
This might be obvious but I saw no halog entry indicating that the frontend busy signals were
properly collected to prevent subtle and dangerous synchronization problems that may result
by running in buffered mode if the frontend busy of all fastbus crates is not plugged into the
trigger supervisor.
Ok, now you have Sergey's measurement which indicates the likely gain of doing this work.
Gen_buff was created and tested in January, but there is a REASON it was hidden after we
added ROC3 and ROC4 -- we didn't have the cables to collect busy. Beware !
