as always when it comes to latency and people tell numbers, i have to ask my question: have you measured this? how? or was it just "putting a number somewhere and assuming that it's the real latency"? how much load do your settings allow?
:) yes, and this latency question is quite a cyclic thread on this list. It comes back regularly (pd-list archive is your friend).
Myself, I've been pretty much into fine tuning of my system in the past to reach the lowest latency possible, without really understanding basic concept such as the latency of the hardware, of the kernel, of the software itself etc etc....
My main concern today is much simpler, if I can't "feel" any latency with my hdsp when using Pd and if I don't have any xruns then I'm happy.
On the kernel side, in pure:dyne we've been playing with RT Ingo Molnar's patches and this results in a very nice system for audio (without xruns on jack on regular hardware and oldy pIII ...)
