That is one of the benefits of sangoma hardware.
They have an mtu value in the driver you can set to 80 (10ms) which despite
the interval the channel is using
it will operate at 10ms interrupts.  Digium's zaptel, umm i mean dahdi uses
the aforementioned masturbation technique and any hardware that interfaces
to it must comply.  Since most of use do not want to be forced to masturbate
with dahdi we are seeking an alternative, hence OpenZAP

OpenZAP so far is only a user land interface with plug-ins for i/o and
signaling.
Eventually the goal is to make a cross-platform kernel layer interface as
well that can abstract TDM and RTP hardware alike and allow the creation of
handles that can be cross-connected inside the kernel as well as in and out
of userland depending on the needs.
