I like the general nature of that config option since it removes the need
to configure all the details. For an average user the current sets of
options must look pretty complicated.

Ok. But all these complicated things would go away if we had an option
CONFIG_LOWLATENCY and then everything would just follow the best setup
possible given the hardware. Would remove a lot of guesswork and a lot of
knobs.
