I looked into the topic for a bit, what I was "needing" the RT kernel

in "realtime" priority, the super user can, but then running general
applications as the superuser is not really the best idea.
Just an idea... would it be possible to re-nice the program you are
using?

Sorry, don't really know what the 'nice level' does or what 're-nice'
means :). I'll look into it.
One program I use, Traverso (http://traverso-daw.org) specifically
notifies you at startup (letting you know that it's not a failure but
may cause performance issues) that it could not set realtime thread
priority, but I have not (yet at least) had any actual performance
problems, so I prefer to pretend there is no problem :).
