If my software naturally produces samples in 64-frame chunks, but the device is set up to have 256-frame periods, is there any advantage to accumulating four chunks in my own buffer and writing entire periods, versus writing each chunk separately and expecting to be blocked every fourth time? Alternatively, would the extra overhead of reducing the period size to 64 (96KHz stereo 32-bit LE on a Raspberry Pi 3) be significant? -- Ciao, Paul D.
