I don't know jacks internals myself. What I posted the other day was

The jack development people will know more about this issue.

Actually, that's not entirely correct.
I've been talking to Paul about
this. The xruns created by exiting clients is due to jackd having to
rework it's internals. When doing this reordering, jackd has to lock
the data it's modifying and sometimes (very often) there will be an
xrun because the audio thread is waiting for the lock to be released.
Ah, and btw: Shouldn't the audio thread just try the lock and if it
fails to claim it produce a period of silence? What spot in the code is
this?
