I'm not sure about the fifth (I/O procs) thread, is that something
used internally by libraries we use? What does it do?
My sketchy idea about this is that this thread is kernel-related (at
least on OS X); it is created by the hardware abstraction layer in
order to manage driver notifications.
( On Linux, the picture is slightly different: Using the alsa audio
driver, four threads are created while using jack five are created. )
Many thanks for your overall explanation. This is indeed food for
thought.
