That's true but you can use the low-latency patch from:
http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/schedlat.html#downloads

I applied the 2.4.18-rc1-low-latency.patch.gz one on the 2.4.18 source tree 
and despite a few patching warnings it compiled fine.

Right now i am using it and cannot hear clicks anymore when switching of 
virtual desktops for instance.

It is very efficient for audio recording too.
