Putnam,
“This seems a bit dated as I'm using LabVIEW 7.1, it appears that this problem either wasn't fixed, or the examples weren't updated.”
I think it’s the latter (not updated). There have been a few posts like this one indicating that the problem with the DataSocket primitives was fixed in LV7. I thought there had been something about the fix in one of the LV or DSC upgrade notes, but I couldn't find anything in a very brief look.

Thanks to both of you. I'm still in the research phase prior to presenting a proposol to the customer, don't want to get burned from not knowing some of the "gotchas".
P.M.

gotcha's
A)
DataSocket overhead scales linearly with channel count. This is not the case with DSC.
I took on a project that was prototyped using DataSockets. It was OK for a couple of I/O points but testing showed that scaling it up would lead to disaster.
DSC on the other hand was able to handle the 3000 tags with time to spare.
