I don't know of any human endeavour that requires lower latency or
more precise timing than music.
A friend used to work on set-top boxes, with fairly slow hardware. They
had demonstrations of two different ways of handling inability to keep

Potential customers always thought they wanted the first approach, until
they watched the demos. Human vision fakes a lot of what we "see" at the
best of times, bit hearing is more sensitive to glitches.
