It's very useful when setting-up to be able to run Jackd non-realtime if 
you're having problems configuring / diagnosing realtime operation. There's 
also quite a lot you can do musically without realtime being enabled, 
obviously (?) you wouldn't want to master a MIDI piece without it.

I've not encountered a situation where this appeared necessary. I keep it 
enabled just to save a couple of egregious error messages. All my machines 
are 16-bit, They don't need to consider anything else.
