>Is ALSA architecture ready for 24bit/192khz cards?

I believe it is. I can't think of anywhere in ALSA that sample rate
plays a major role in limiting resources or capabilities.

OTOH, I don't know if the kernel can handle this with the smallest
periods.  64 frames/interrupt translates to an interrupt every
0.3msec. Running with HZ=1000 is reported to cause a 6% increase in
CPU load spent on the system clock interrupt. This is more than 3
times that level, with an arguably more expensive IRQ handler.

Still, for large frames/interrupt setting, it should be pretty good,
and besides, you can still choose a period setting thats the same as
current 48 or 96kHz cards can get.
