JACK does not add latency. It does add some overhead, Jack2 some more
than Jack1, and especially on small ARM dev boards like the bananapi.
This overhead could get in the way of achieving the lowest latency
possible compared to using plain ALSA. So if you're using an ARM board
to output sound from a single application you might be better off using
plain ALSA.
