Since I gave such a glowing review of my testing the

thought I'd report back my not so stellar results from last night.
I left all the services running on a fully loaded machine (http, iptables,
sendmail, samba, etc...) and started jack at 128/44100/2 in real time. I
started a 20 minute recording session with ardour (no jamin yet). While
ardour was recording I dialed into the internet with my modem, opened
evolution, read email and poked around a bit with konqueror. I got zero,
nada, nil, none, no xruns whatsoever.
Then I introduced jamin - 4 xruns in 8 mins.
Shut down jamin and go back to only ardour - more xruns.
Shut down all but essential services and only use ardour - more xruns.
Seems that a bottle of xruns was opened and I can't put the cap back on.
I have seen this happen. What processor are you using? Does the cpu load
jump up (and stay up) when you enter in this "xrun mode"?
