SheetCam <www.sheetcam.com> can do this at a much lower price. I can write a post processor for you that will slow down to a preset percentage of the normal feed rate on arcs. The post could even be configured to slow down more for tighter arcs.

Hi Peter,
I do have deskcnc and it's good enough for this, but water jets needs a good cam that can look way ahead and predicts what is going to happen and than starts to adjust the feed rate before it gets to a corner or radius to compensate for Jet lag doing that manualy would be a pain if not impossible.
Got a quote from PEPs and it runs at 10K US$ (ouch !!)
I've being thinking about getting a working G code, than work this out on excel to adjust the feed rate.
