Hi Mira,

I was against the new QjackCtl GUI. The fundamental idea of this tab
design is, that users should only use the "Parameters" tab and just in
exceptional cases, experts should use the "Advanced" tab.

Don't care about this option, neither use it via QjackCtl, nor as a
command line option.

$ man jackd | grep "\-realtime" -A2 | head -14 | tail
       -R, --realtime
              Use realtime scheduling (default = true). This is needed for reliable low-latency performance.  On many systems, it requires jackd to run with special scheduler and memory
              allocation privileges, which may be obtained in several ways.
--
       -r, --no-realtime
              Do not use realtime scheduling.

       -P, --realtime-priority int
              When running --realtime, set the scheduler priority to int.

Regards,
Ralf
