If you're running low-end recycled hardware, like I do, minimising services
helps give you a bit more operational headroom. I don't know about the
theory, this is from practical experience - it only really makes a noticeable
difference when I'm running Rosegarden or JAMin. Otherwise I use this machine
for everything, with a permanent network connection. Most of the system
tuning that has been suggested is done during A/DeMuDi installation anyway.

Agreed, that "school of thought" is based on crappy OS'es like Windows.
Most of the "system tuning" you read about on Windows and Mac audio
sites does not apply to a modern Linux system. There is a school of thought that says an audio
machine shouldn't be
connected to a network at all (minimize services for best latency
and CPU availability for audio, is the logic)
Rubbish;). If your prioritized processes are interrupted by other
processes, then there is something wrong with the system.
