Also, there is a known issue where starting a new

xruns. I don't remember what the status is.
Starting a new jack client in itself won't produce xruns. Also, cleanly
shutting down a jack client will not in itself produce xruns [iirc]. But
it seems that many, if not most, jack apps, get some part of the RT
operation stuff not right. Especially start up and shutdown.
Including jackd itself. There is always an xrun produced when jackd
starts up. Jackd intentionally ignores this, you have to comment out
some code to see the report. I was never able to figure out what causes
this xrun. I did establish that the duration is always about the same,
depending on whether NPTL or linuxthreads is in use - in one case it was
70 ms or so, in the other 30.
