I hope someone can help me with this.
I have:
Athlon64 Dual-Core 6000+
2GB DDR3 RAM, running dual-channel
3 x SATA hard disks
Emu 1212m sound card
Ubuntu Studio 7.10 (Gutsy, I think)
Trying to run JACK at 44.1khz, at a 128 sample buffer I'm getting on the
order of 50-60 xruns a second. Even at a 4096 sample buffer, I was
getting one xrun every 2 seconds. I would think this setup should be
able to handle a 64 sample buffer without any trouble.
The one caveat is I did have to compile the latest stable ALSA from
scratch, so that my sound card would work. Could it be related to the
still-beta driver for my Emu card? Or maybe I need to recompile ALSA
with some options?
Thank you for any help.

I talked to my programming prof about this, and he thinks the fact that
I'm using a 64-bit OS might have a lot to do with it. I'll try
installing the 32-bit version of Ubuntu Studio at some point this week
and see if that changes anything (I keep all of my data on a separate
partition, so it's not a huge operation for me).

What devices do you use for capture and playback? The most suitable setup for
jack is hw:0,2 for capture and hw:0,0 for playback. Also make sure that your
samplerate in jack matches actual samplerate (see alsamixer).

Any recent alsa (1.0.15 and up) should work well. I have had 1212m nad now I
have 1616m cardbus. Apart from missing 24bit playback, higher samplerates and
some bells and whistles, these cards work pretty well with alsa.

That's how I currently have mine set up as well, and all sample rates
match. It works, so far.

Yeah, 24-bit playback is the only thing left that I want.
