Anyone seen an improvement or the opposite while doing this? I have been doing
it for some time, because I want Yoshimi's math and RAM usage to have the same
very high priority as audio processing. But the Jack developer:

https://github.com/jackaudio/jackaudio.github.com/wiki/FAQ_and_Myths

has pointed out using some Arch wiki content which I contributed, saying that
this also gives the GUI threads of Yoshimi (and others) incorrectly high
priority. Which gives me some serious pause. I can't worry about my
Fluidsynth processes, because there is no GUI thread, but about anything GUI,
which includes both Yoshimi and my post-synth filters, perhaps I should be
thinking better.

Of course, I could run Yoshimi without the GUI, and probably will shortly. But
in general, folks, what have you tried, have you found a way to run GUI filters
and/or synths and other things where the GUI is not given terrible priority but
their CPU/RAM is prioritized?

J.E.B.
