NI 7334, 7342, and 7344 Timing Information
The following table lists the execution time for selected functions, as well as for the different attributes of those functions, if applicable. Also included is timing information for axes or vector spaces, if both are supported with a given function.
 |
Note The times listed are benchmark times and are not a guarantee of function execution times on your system. Times do not take into account other operations, onboard programs, or other factors that slow performance. |
