Hi,
I'm just echoing Lee's inputs as someone who's been down the low
latency path for a while now. I am currently using 2.6.16-gentoo-r2
with no low latency patches. It works fine on my AMD64 hardware, at
least for low work load low latency needs. I run at 64/2 on my HDSP
9652 and get no xruns doing mostly mixing and a very little recording.
However I do require realtime-lsm be enabled and loaded. Without
realtime-lsm all kernels on my machine, with or without Ingo's
patches, cause xruns.
Does realtime-lsm offer any performance benefits over simply
running relevant sound apps as root? I'm aware of the security benefits.
