I wouldn't expect a lot of packet routing to be happening. Curiously enough, I 
was wondering what would happen if the dlapdspa sliding windows transmission 
dealie was ported to a jack framework. I need to look at jack.plumbing.

It could be feasible to use an OSX Mac and jack as kind of a bridge to 
whatever they use to route audio... for integration purposes. I'm assuming 
the proprietary Mac stuff doesn't support jack, but that doesn't mean the 
converse is impossible.

Thanks and `apt-get install lmbench`worked ;)
