Well, a couple of days ago I started getting into sync again with the latest and greatest latency patches (I was on a trip and then the move to the new temporary trailers has been a humongous time sink). Andrew Morton and Ingo Molnar have been busy, and Lee Revell - and others as well - have been providing the raw data they need to fix problems. I'm currently starting to test a new 2.6.7 kernel for FC2 (based on rc2-mm2 and Ingo's voluntary preempt patches) and it does feel a LOT better. Just booted into it yesterday for the first time. I can still manage to get Jack to be unhappy with 2.6.x but there are no xruns when testing with 128x2. So, overall, a lot of progress has been happening! -- Fernando
