No, that's exactly what I'd like
to address. Jack does what it does (and very
well too!), but if the app (zyn/yoshi) doesn't conform to jack's requirements,
things aren't going to go well. So yoshi does need to improve the way it relates
to jack, especially during it's "private moments" such as patch changes.

I'd be inclined to try turning hyperthreading

well, after poking around the bios, they don't allow you to turn that
option off. crap... Quite possibly
true. If the cpu simply can't keep up the pace required, it
simply ain't gonna work. However, silent, catastrophic failure isn't a polite
way for the app to handle the situation. I'm interested in improving that,
especially with regard to "zombies at every patch switch".
ok, and if that's what the final word is, then I'm just going to have
to be OK with that. however, I'm curious - when I avoid jack
altogether and just run the app using ALSA only, patch switches work
just dandy. obviously that really outside the bounds of what you're
trying to do (improve jack), but I'm less inclined to believe that the
processor is at fault - if it was, wouldn't the whole thing bomb out,
regardless if I'm using ALSA or jack? IANAP, b/t/w. :)
Very few of us are if the
truth were admitted :-).
