This parameter will not have any effect on anything because there is no
program that uses the HPET timers from userspace. When high-resolution
timers are used by ALSA, this is done inside the kernel where there is
no limit on the maximum frequency.

IIRC someone on jack-devel mailing list had issues when using mplayer
with the value 64 and it was solved when using the value 1024. But as I
mentioned before, for my USB MIDI there was a difference between system
timer and hr timer, but there was no difference for the value 64 and
1024, when using hr timer.
Btw. I don't understand what a maximum frequency in the context does
mean. If 64 or 1024 should have impact, what would be the result?
System timer for a kernel-rt is set up to 1000Hz and hr timer is at
1000000000Hz.
What is 'max-user-freq' for?
Cheers!
