Simplest thing would be install the Planet CCRMA kernel for Fedora, and 
check out the systems tuning stuff mentioned above. Next step is the use 
a lightweight window manager like Fluxbox or Windowmaker. Every time I 
see somebody doing live audio work under Linux, I know I ain't looking 
at Gnome or KDE ;-) Checking your PCI/IRQ interrupts and seeing if 
there's conflict is another step, as this site describes:
