You always have a latency of one block when doing recursion, no matter
if it's done with tables or delay lines. So either way you could achieve
the smallest possible latency by using 1 as a block size in the subpatch
that does the looping part. 

If you force the order of [tabwrite~] and [tabread~] they introduce zero
latency (the same applies to [elwrite~] and [delread~]/[vd~]). However,
when doing recursion the order can only be 'read first' and 'write
afterwards'.
