 A couple years back I did a lot of this sort of parameter adjusting
to get Ubuntu Studio (vintage 9.x) to work with
as few xruns as possible with 2 AF12's.

After getting it running I did the same in vintage UB Studio 10.x, but
could never get it to the point of no xruns in a 2 hour recording.

I then stumbled on AVLinux. I installed it, fired up Jack and
Ardour...and it just worked. So that's what I've been using for
sometime now.

This is of course a single data point and I have not had the occasion
to do try anything with later releases. So: YMMV , caveat emptor.
