I guess so. But its not necesarrily very import, at least not for (most

I'm at work now, and we ~only have delta
cards. At home I use a built-in
sound-card on an nforce chipset. But I get nearly the same good
performance in pd here as at home. So here is delta44 parameters:

This means that you could be having small xruns all the time! Of course,
really long breaks are always audible, but shorter ones are sometimes
quite subtle. Still, you are losing audio data.
