OK.

Just for the heads up, here goes todays summary results regarding
my jack_test4.2 test suite against 2.6.12 kernels configured with
PREEMPT_RT, but... now with 99.9% certainty :)

Just for the forgiveness sake, my mistake was useful after all,
where one can incidentally assert the significantly lower performance
of PREEMPT_DESKTOP for audio work, when PREEMPT_RT is a clear winner.

As it was already, for quite some time. No more worries ;)

Thanks,
