If 96 frames are enough for stability (and say 64 isn't), then sample 96 - 127 in a 128 frame buffer are a waste of memory anyway and only adds to latency. It may even be so that a set of shorter buffers that are only partially aligned - but allocated as one continous area - may have a greater chance of fitting into available cache, without trashing other important data. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
