Actually, this is still wrong (as was my comment). JACK1 adds no latency, and a very small amount of overhead. JACK2 run in its default mode adds latency, and a very small amount of overhead. JACK2 run in sync mode discards almost every benefit of using JACK2, adds no latency and a very small amount of overhead. I tend to forget this difference between JACK1 and JACK2.
