John. Very interesting. Great to see that you measured some kind of impact. "Less processing for smaller buffers"!?!? Hmmh. You got a lot more interrupts in the system to refill a smaller buffer. Theoretically the total amount of data you process should be the same, if you take a certain buffer management losses out of equation. Perhaps this is something of interest, it might be related to the subject: An article about buffer or latency jitter can be found over 'here' (http://www.rme-audio.de/english/techinfo/lola_latec.htm) at RME.
