This makes it tricky, because you end up with latency variation due to eh OS's process scheduler that is on the order of magnitude of the real-time requirements for air-to-air or light-to-light response (meaning the physical transition from sound or picture to and from the transducer).

at some level this is correct, but if the link is clogged with TCP packets, it 
doesn't matter what your UDP application attempts to do, so installing cake to 
keep individual links from being too congested will allow your UDP application 
have a chance to operate.
