jack_test is/was a stress test suite that was being used a couple of
years ago to harness the jackd against a realtime-preempt kernel.

at the time it was used mainly to compare kernel performance wrt.
realtime low-latency audio, when taken to the extreme (many jack clients
connecting hundreds of audio ports in a cross-mix-chain).

it was indeed used to benchmark assessment of the realtime-preempt
kernel while it was being developed by Ingo himself, ever since the
primordial voluntary-preempt times.

fact is, it is not used anymore and i even can't say it it still works
as expected, as jackd has been broken for a while (infamously 0.109.2:)
and kernel-rt development has been handed over upstream.
