I think the poster lacks experience with jackd - he appears to be
ignorant, what an xrun is in the real world, I posted this reply on
slashdot:
I can run jackd with ardour at 2.3ms stable and reliable on a 2.5 year
old PIV 2.8 with a 6 year old Terratec Audiocard, while having Firefox
browsing the Internet and with a Desktop Preempt Kernel.
Plus: xruns occour from time to time but only if I start up critical
Apps like Zynadd, load huge Projectfiles etc. So to be sure, that xruns
do not cause any harm, I only need to avoid starting major apps while a
Recording is running...
When I close a usual session after 3-5 h I have maybe 3-4 xruns and none
of them influenced the recorded material in any way. Even if I run into
real trouble with jackd (by playing a problematic Zynadd-Patch with too
much polyphony or the like), the session recovers usually without need
to restart, when stopping the apps, that had caused the trouble.
So I fail to get your point: what are you doing with your system and
your other-side-of-the-globe Musicians that a single xrun can destroy
your work??
best regards
