Not strictly an issue in that sense, but I am a musician that heavily uses software monitoring for guitars and vocals, meaning I rely on the lowest latency possible to play back the input.
Pipewire just isn’t quite there on the performance level of jack, but I also use realtime kernels and CPU governors to further reduce latency issues, so this is an extreme use case.
While the guy you replied to seens a bit unhinged, I have to agree that pipewire isn’t the holy grail some people make it out to be, but I guess it’s a better solution than pulse audio for 99% of general users.
I do, in fact, not know what I am talking about. Is there actually some sound engineers or musicians that are having real-life issues with it ?

Oh wow. How much time does the whole input-processing-output takes? I would have thought it would be so fast that you couldn’t notice it
Some musicians assured me that using bluetooth instrument was fine in terms of delay, wouldn’t that absolutely blow up all the cool kernel tuning?
