In order not underloading Advanced Gtk+ Sequencer there's recommended a fully realtime kernel configured at clock speed of 1000 Hz. You have to pay attention that there's enough disk space left, about 6-7 GB used. On debian GNU/Linux do the following:
The example below assumes you have at least 4 virtual processors and was set therefor as concurrency level value.

export CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=4
