Just a reminder that commonly "real-time" on stuff like VxWorks isn't hard realtime either. You test a bunch of scenarios, put in some execution CPU head-room you are comfortable with, and call it a day. With enough head-room and some more (or less, if you have money and time) hand-waving, you can more or less guarantee that deadlines will be kept.
