heres what im seeing
… you can see all 4 threads nicely even loaded,
generally I think its performing excellently, not had any audio drop outs at all.
(I did upgrade to the PI3B+, so that gives me a useful bit of headroom over the norns hardware
)

sorry, I did all the setup quite a while ago now, so not quite sure what I finalised the kernel parameters on,
i did quite a lot of back n forth on pre-empt, I think i turned it off in the end.
and just made sure that the scaler was on performance, as has a nasty habit of switching back to on demand on booting up!
