This is after tweaking memlocks, nice %s , buffers and so on.
I know that chipset sound, is not a very efficient recording interface, but
it seems there is more going on, besides that.
I have two main questions here (they sum up to: how much of this is the
chipset?)
a. i had heard here and there in forums that the RT kernel in 9.04 and on
was 'broken'. is that true?
9.4 was broken 9.10 works very good for me...
b. Is RT only worth using for higher end machines with
more ram and separate
sound cards?
no - the opposite is true: with a proper rt-kernel you can run critical
stuff on lower machines also. It just grabs everything your box can do
for audio...
And one more: Would anyone recommend using a different
audio OS for this
situation, like 64 studio?
Not really, wait until it is stable I would suggest...
If you want to try something debianish go for pure:dyne or AVLinux.
(i might have mentioned jacklab, but it seems
that project has been killed)
Not so much killed but died more or less without big shock and awe...
Still OpenSuse is very good for audio with the rt-kernel from jengelh
installed...
best regs
