right. jack-session is supported. but thats what jack1 and jack2 also
support nowadays.
well.... which of the features is unclear ?
hi...
since jack1 release is taking pretty long, i decided to stop waiting
with a tschack release.
tschack is an SMP aware fork of jack1.
its a dropin replacement like jack2.
features:
- jack1 mlocking
- controlapi which works even when libjackserver.so is loaded RTLD_LOCAL
- smp aware
- backendswitching
- strictly synchronous like jack1. (-> no latency penalty)
- clickless connections.
- shuts down audio processing when cpu is overloaded for too long.
i also released PyJackd which is a wrapper around libjackserver.
features:
- commandline for backendswitching
- pulseaudio dbus reservation.
get it here:

Not sure what half of that means :)
One thing I think you forgot to mention but might be of interest is

Async (jack2?) has a latency penalty?

I guess most users don't know very much about the technical details of
the jack implementations.
