Latency is (generally) very high when I run Windows audio apps under Alsa directly. However, when using VSTs and jack_fst the latency is identical (in my experience) to any other Jack app and can be controlled by qjackctl. Not a problem using VSTs with Rosegarden. Just remember that they wil normally run *outside* of RG and you'll be hooking them up manually. It does work though.
