I wonder what conclusion you came to?
We have a cheap microcontroller board we use on our large sensor count instruments that does OSC MUCH faster than the $25 ones we sometimes use. We use it to simultaneously send OSC and 256 channels of 96kHz 24-bit audio over ethernet packets.
The microcontroller in the $100 Make Controller board can also do a lot of I/O.
