@Moon @kumicota @sjw @BrodieOnLinux in audio we get told by the hardware when its time to push more sound. we don't control that.

GPUs are also doing similar things with monitors now (freesync, gsync) because the display out knows more about the frame being done than the link does.

this is one of those things that just makes you want to drive a killdozer in to freedesktop. it's not a hill that was worth dying on.
