I have used RT preemption to ensure that WiMAX radio PHY and MAC drivers
can be appropriately prioritized to avoid hardware I/O overun and
underrun conditions.

Like some have mentioned, trying to maintain this essential stability
simultaneous with high throughput (especially high bandwidth stream of
really small packets) can still be a challenge.
