Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ardour

I'm running the latest karmic as of this writing (17-Oct-2009), and I'm
using the 2.6.31-9-rt kernel.

I launch ardour using the command "chrt 69 ardour2" to ensure it gets
enough attention from the system. This worked flawlessly in Jaunty (with
a custom-compiled kernel, though), but in Karmic I get:

---
$ chrt 69 ardour2

         This might cause Ardour to run out of memory before your system runs
         out of memory. You can view the memory limit with 'ulimit -l', and it
         is normally controlled by /etc/security/limits.conf

This doesn't happen if I execute "ardour2" and then "chrt -p 69 $(pidof
ardour-2.8.2)", so I guess that it is only at startup that Ardour's
scheduling policy/priority is checked by glib.

I guess the problem is really in glib, so I'll add it to the package
list. I will recheck with the non-rt kernel to see what happens there.

For the record, I'm also running jackd at a priority of 75, hydrogen
(compiled from svn) at a priority of 69, and have increased the priority
of the soundcard and rtc0 interrupts to 85 and 98, respectively [all of
these with policy SCHED_RR].
