My experience: It seemed to work ok on my old laptop, which was a secondhand ibm thinkpad t30 . However upon the sad demise of that machine and acquisition of a brand new, dualcore, acer 5610 there's nothing but problems.
Most of the problems go away when using the external Edirol UA-25 but there's still a kind of periodic 'click' about every 5-30 seconds, and once it a while it causes a timeout , causing some sort of buffer fragmentation in JACK that does not recover. Is it a PD problem or a JACK problem ?!?! or a Hardware problem... The click I could deal with, but hte unexpected buffer fragmentation thing is a big problem

no (not true)

but what is "serious" work anyway ;)

I use jack and pd + supercollider + ardour + a couple of other apps routing
between them and then back to ardour to record the output all the time and
it works great for me (and that's debian stable on a fairly old powerbook)

just my 2 cents,
