Best guess so far is Yoshimi. Last I looked the

locks for synchronizing audio+midi i/o and can block all of jack.
Multiple instances of jackd could mitigate this.

Hmmm. When was the last time you looked?
I'm not aware of anything that can block the whole of jack. Indeed, I've run a
fairly complex 12 part tune at 48k and only 16 frames/period on a poorly
optimised dual core machine, deliberately getting it to produce the occasional
Xrun to see how it recovered. It typically produces 2 inaudible ones during the
5 minute track. As far as I'm aware nothing was being blocked. It simply ran out
of time under these (frankly insane) conditions.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
