Hello Torben,
I've searched for more info about this but I couldn't find anywhere that
100 might be an invalid setting. Do you have more info on this, a link
maybe?
Priority 100 is the absolute max on Linux. When you use that, nothing else
will stop jack in case of errors. And nothing else has a chance to run, not
even interrupts handlers for hardware.
Using priorities above 80 seems save, above 90 there is a good chance that
your jack-threads take up your cpu and nothing has enough priority to stop
them...
Don't test what happens while all is well, test what happens when you have a
high dsp-load and then a cpu-hogging client.
Have fun,
Arnold
