Quoting tim hall <tech(a)glastonburymusic.org.uk>uk>:
Does anyone have any useful insights into why ardour
(0.99) so often
starts up
with no sound? - particularly if the last session was kicked out by jack
(0.100.7). When it works it will run for a whole session, but I am having
to
reboot a little too often to get sound back for my liking. Restarting
jack or
alsa alone does not usually sort this. I am at such a loss to know how to
debug this sort of problem
Sounds like a denormal issue. More on them on http://www.ardour.org/node/139
Which plugins are you using in the session?

Thanks Sampo. This makes a lot of sense. Nice clear article.

A datapoint here - I've been running into a lot of plugin/denormal issues

hit stop, the system load would end up at 90-95%, and dropped to about 15%
when I hit play again.
I traced it to some EQ plugins, one from the swh collection that's part
of the Planet CCRMA distribution and another (3 band parametric) from the
TAP collection. When I substituted a different (and less flexible) EQs,
the problem went away.

OK, that does seem to explain some of my issues. It does not explain my 3
minute recording window, as that happens even with no plug-ins. However, the
fact that I am running on only 320M RAM may have something to do with that.
I see that the ardour site has a lot more information on it than the last time
I looked, so there is plenty of material and potential clues to come.
Thanks for all the pointers so far. It has really eased my sense of
frustration. :)
