That said, as you can't use all CPU time on a UP

as cache issues seem to make multithreaded processing virtually
pointless (with the possible exception of multicore CPUs), it's
entirely possible that there is no real gain in cutting latencies
below what 2.6-rt can provide. I don't know, but it might be worth
some experiments...
Maximum jitter with 2.6-rt is 20-50 microseconds last time I checked.
So less than 5% even at a marginally useful period sizes like 32
frames.
