    Basically tasks have a tight window of execution latency guarantee (although they can exceed that as Linux is not a deterministic hard realtime kernel)

    This means potentially lower performance and other losses but it provides very low latency, which is useful for some tasks that need low latency due to their nature like high quality professional audio
