where did you get that piece of information? the lowest latency i was ever able to get with Pd at 44.1kHz was with RME Hammerfall and OSS(!) drivers: 4.8ms measured(!) between soundcard input and soundcard output, and that at a load of 80% or so. (i don't fully trust in the numbers that you can fill into the various forms, regardless of Pd, jack, or whatever; the only way to get yuor latency is to measure it). the main problem with OSS is, that it is simply not available anymore on recent debian/ubuntu/... distros. > Besides, if you configure your system right with ALSA and JACK, you > don't need to run PD as root.
