I agree. The links you posted seem to bear out the performance
expectations outlined here:
https://github.com/pa3gsb/Radioberry-2.x/wiki/Radioberry-performance
Two receivers, 96kHz, with the DSP running on the same Pi is the
expectation. Johan does mention that an improvement to his present
polling scheme has been in the wish-list queue and since the Pi is
keeping pretty busy polling the GPIO if a kernel mode interrupt-based
handler can be developed that should enable improved performance. My
guess is the audio breakups you heard are a result of the CPU running
out of cycles from doing all the polling.
My opinion - it's not the Pi 4 that's the gating item but the lack of a
kernel mode driver.
