[OpenSPIM] need Firewire?

Hi Pete,

Since I am having this issue with speed: Would you mind profiling 
("profile acquisition") and sending me the result of a 10 frame long 
time series (100ms exposure) recorded to memory with X/Y/Z Stage/Theta 
all unchecked and  without "Update Live preview".

That would be great!

Robert
