[LAU] JACK freewheel mode: disadvantages?

[Paul Davis]

Freewheel mode is a highly specialized thing, intended for offline (i.e.
not throttled by audio data flowing to/from audio hardware) rendering of
the entire JACK graph.

It used by (e.g.) Ardour for exporting (when Ardour is using JACK anyway;
Ardour's other backends have a similar concept built in).

Freewheel mode is not something you use as a general thing.
