When you double the sample rate it halves the latency for a given size
buffer. So, you would generally expect to use larger buffers when
running at 96Khz. With your hardware, I'd expect -p512 to work, if
the system hardware and software are properly tuned.
That is a non-trivial task, however. Here is a good place to start...

There are also JACK-specific issues to be aware of. Here is an update
for the JACK FAQ I'm currently working on. Comments and suggestions
are welcome...
