By "now" I mean this. On the input side, the "now" is the real, "what

24 samples, then "now" for input is the real now - 24 samples - so you
get
the 64 samples that were written in up to 24 samples ago. On output,
"now"
is the real now plus the safety offset of the driver.
What are the factors that determine the safety offset value? I can
think of a protection against a possible jitter in the OS wake up time?
Or to give the time for these 64 samples to be transmitted on the USB,
Firewire cable, etc from the device to the computer? Any other factor?
Thanks,
