I did the same quick latency tests with 2.6.12-rc1 that I posted about for 2.6.11 a few weeks ago.
2.6.12-rc1 is significantly better than 2.6.11. Running JACK at 64 frames (1.3 ms) works very well. I was not able to produce xruns even with "dbench 64", which slows the system to a crawl. With 2.6.11, I could easily produce xruns with much lighter loads. It would appear that the latency issues related to the 4 level page tables merge have been resolved.
