Ubuntu 24.04 comes with both low latency and real time kernels, potentially improving SQ.

Suggest adding an option within SnakeOil tab to set the low latency kernel to full preempt.

Another option is to enable nohz_full for the CPU's dedicated to the music players using CPUset. 

The real time kernel is available for both AMD and ARM processors.
https://ubuntu.com/real-time
Have a SO option to simplify the process to login to Ubuntu Pro and get the Real time kernel. 

Just in case people are not aware, Ubuntu Pro is free and the RT kernel can be downloaded free for use on 5 instances.
