Currently, the SITL cannot be armed on old / slow hardware or VMs due to OVERLOAD from:
even if after the scheduler throttles the specified 1us to 100us. This causes overload due to the excessive activity of the serial task.
This patch reschedules at 500us, but I'm not sure that any reschedule is really necessary. Still, this seems safe; tested on a 2009 "Intel® AtomTM processor N270 (1.6GHz single core with HT)" (ia32) as working correctly with
fl2sitl
as the X-Plane protocol "simulator".
