These are not caused by a lack of raw processing power. They are caused by Phantom Paging . Windows, macOS, and Linux are designed for multi-tasking, not real-time response. By default, your OS will silently page out drivers, background services, and anti-malware scanners to make room for your active app. When that driver is needed again, the system suffers a "Hard Page Fault," freezing your application for 10–100 milliseconds.
Modern devices generate thousands of interrupts per second. A configuration isolates PCIe devices (especially NVMe drives and Network cards) to dedicated CPU cores using processor affinity. This prevents "interrupt storms" from paging out your audio or display buffers. phantom pagalfree
