I am curious where the worst case numbers for Windows/Mac come from. My
experiences with real world apps running on these platforms is that the
latency is quite a bit worse than linux (these are apps that don't use
special techniques to acheive lower latency - i.e. gigasampler). Also,
the only tests I have seen on Windows indicated that its average
latency was in the 150ms range (this was an ICMC paper by Roger Dannenberg
- I may be remembering that number incorrectly). Just wondering.
