GPIO is low speed?

mohsen shahabi
hi.
i use mini6410.i write a program that use gpio port.for example led port.
i see that speed is limited to 700k byte per second.it means when i toggle
that port it toggle 700khz in maximum speed.i know that cpu speed is 533mhz
but i don't know why this is done?i need toggling in minimum 10mega bit per
socond.

then you should use the SPI port

it's not possible to toggle a gpio at that speed with a OS like linux or
Windows CE.
Let's imagine that if the processor executes an instruction every clock
cycle (i'm even not sure it is the case), 10Mhz toggle means you want to
toggle the led every 53 instructions, it's impossible if you want the OS to
be able to do other things at the same time.

If operating system is no problem then u can design stand alone(no OS)
utility for faster GPIO.
