While in general you should not run services you don't use, in this area
Linux is a lot better than Windows.  Running unnecessary services should
not interfere with audio performance.  Of course if they're usilg a lot
of CPU you have that much less for DSP, but it's not line on Windows
where you need to shut down all unnecessary services and the network and
what not in order to not get underruns.
