max velocity ???

In order to determine the maximum velocity on a given path one needs to
optimize the velocity profile, which is a bit complicated task.
See e.g. Bobrow, Dubowsky, Gibson: Time-Optimal Control of Robotic 
Manipulators Along Specified Paths. Int. J. of Robotics Research, 
VOL 4, NO 3, 1985, pp. 3-17.

I am sure that some people have done it, and I would really be interested 
in the implementations (incl. PUMA). But can we ever find the true optimal
movements, are the mathematical models we use accurate enough?
