`man 2 mlock` - preventing memory from being paged to the swap area.
that's needed to prevent stalling audio-applications because they're
swapped out.
What's the difference between jack1 and jack2 mlocking? Announcing this
as feature for tschack hints that jack1's implementation is "better" - why?

Oh, I thought there is no jack1 release with jack-session yet, dunno
about jack2.

Async (jack2?) has a latency penalty?

the jack implementations.
