So, yeah if you were already riding the edge of perceptibility in your system for live sound/performance to where 2ms pushed you over the edge that would be an issue.

Some of the USB interfaces barely let you make under 11ms with a 64 sample buffer and no plugins up. Zero headroom to do anything with that!

Remember that the plugins don't cumulatively add to your system latency though. It's only when the latency you set the system for can't accommodate a PDC value that it adds another block of latency to the system. If you cross THAT line it's all over for live performance!
