A good definition is looming...
Using the linux generic kernel as is, the following measurements were
taken by connecting a single RCA cable from playback 3 to capture 6 and
using qjackctl (which must be restarted before each run since jackd is
launched from the command line).
The goal now is to be able to have a delay that cannot be noticed
without having xruns, crackling noise, i.e, while keeping processing
running smoothly. There is no choice than to drop the delay below 5ms
to get best response when playing. So this means 128. While 64 could
be great, I am not so sure about overdoing it.
If I understood correctly what will help in getting this are the
low latency kernel, and a re-assignment of real time processing of IRQs.
