True. I've set up the netbook to disable all services and unload all
drivers I don't need when booting with a realtime kernel. And it runs a
light DE, rtirq and CPU scaling is set to performance. Also make sure
your audio device isn't sharing an interrupt with something else. In my
case the onboard soundcard shares an interrupt with a USB controller. I
need to unbind the controller otherwise CPU load on the tasklets will
quickly rise.

Best,
