The 200KHz is the frequency of the steps and yes for my machines it is too low, for example the Bridgeport I am re-doing at the moment has servos with 2000 counts per rev encoders, thats 8,000 as far as Mach is concerned. Motors will spin at 5000rpm so that is (8,000 x 5,000)/60 = 666.666KHz
I could use electronic gearing in my servo drives but I prefer not to.
Smoothstepper is capable of pulsing at 4MHz.
