You might want to investigate Ingo Molnar's realtime patches [1] (in |
| 9 |
case you don't already know about them). They are apparently very good |
| 10 |
at keeping worst-case latencies very low. I tried an older version of |
| 11 |
that patchset (just used it for normal desktop stuff) and it seemed to |
| 12 |
work fine. I heard that people use it for audio stuff, but I don't do |
| 13 |
anything much with audio myself. |
