Not bad at all!
I haven't measured with jdelay, but if I understand correctly,
round-trip latency is d + (p + p*n)/sr, where p is the -p
arg to the jackd backend, n is the -n argument, sr is the sampling rate,
and d is the latency introduced by DA and AD conversions.

Assuming d is about 1-2 ms, that means you're running with
something like jackd -d alsa ... -p 64 -n 3 
or -p 64 -n 2 ?

If so, that's really pretty nice, I haven't done any better
on my delta 66 (but I haven't tried aggressively to go lower).
I can sort of run at -p 32 -n 3 (3ms + d) but I get dropouts.
