I run 2.6.0-test3 and it works quite well, although I never tried any patched 2.4.x kernel, so I don't have a lot to compare with. I didn't apply any patches, just selected "pre-emptive-kernel" in the configuration. Without X I'm able to run csound with a buffersize of 64 on a medium complex analog style patch and too much polyphony to count (P4 2400 laptop, using the buildin intel i810 soundcard). But I'm also interrested in meassuring the performance of my system including latency more precisely. Is there software outthere that will to it for me in an accurate way? Are there any patches that can be applied to the 2.6.0 kernels to improve latency? -- peace, love & harmony Atte
