A RME Hammerfall cad provides EXACTLY the same latency under Windows or
Linux.

The real BIG WIN under Linux is Jack, which supports the transmission of
real-time audio BETWEEN applications. In the Windows world, this would be
like Cubase and Cakewalk both running and talking to each other. This is, I
believe, to some small extent supported by ASIO, but I haven't enough
knowledge of ASIO to say where the differences really are. I am pretty clear
that ASIO does not support the concept of multiple major apps all patching
audio between themselves, which is very easy under Linux with Jack.
