No Bernardo, I get the same or even better latencies. Down to 5-6 ms (pd audio sttings display) with a very complex patch. Alsa is giving me more problems like digital A/D/A sync errors. As far as I know alsa is using oss anyway. Not sure if I'm wrong here.
Anyway, I just figured out what the problem was. I had a "-blocksize 64" flag set when starting the patch. Changing this blocksize to a higher value like 512 did the trick. Now higher delay settings have an effect. Seems a bit strange to me as the actual blocksize doesn't seem to change but the maximum buffer size is increasing. It also like it's giving me a slightly lower cpu consumption (10-20%). I'll have to try different values in order to see what seems to be the best setting.
