Lowest Latency Roundtrip Achieved from a Focusrite Scarlett (1st Gen) Audio Interface

Can you guys chime in on this and let me know what are the lowest roundtrip latency figures you got (and at what sample rates) on a first gen Focusrite Scarlett interface?
 
I'm currently at 27.7 msec at 44.1 with a 5.0 msec buffer setting on W10 x64.

That latency is downright brutal. Is that seriously the lowest you can get on Focusrite's ASIO drivers?

No, just the lowest set at 5ms.

I see that I'm not alone based on the figures Cactus Music and RSMCGUITAR posted.
 
Would love to get that beta driver sonico is using but it seems Focusrite has moved on from the Scarlett 1st gen.

I wonder if the latency is even reported properly. I certainly don't a problem with my playing at the above settings I posted.

Also, I'm using the 2.5.2 driver. There is a 2.5.1 and 3.2.2 as well

I use beta drivers too, and find these are a lot better than official v1.8 drivers.

I'm never clear as to what others are reporting. Are people looking at what I'm looking at which is Sonars reported round trip latency?? 
I know a faster computer might help but I'd have to set the Mix Control setting at 2ms to get around 10ms RTL. On my system this will stop the audio engine dead in it's tracks.. 
I've no problem recording soft synths.  I do not hear any delay when playing my controller driving any soft synths.  And yes I always bypass all bins when recording midi otherwise I wail hear delay.
I think mid is a totally different kettle of fish. In my case I'm not even sure it has anything to do with the Scarlett drivers at all.
I'm either using a Roland USB keyboard controller or my Yamaha digital drums which are also USB.They both require installing their own drivers. There is a noticeable delay with the Yamaha drums so I direct monitor the brain while tracking. But I spend days and days working with my Roland controller / keyboard and it responds instantly. 
 
If I turn on input echo for an audio track I can most certainly hear a slap back echo.
 
I just tried a few different sample rates
I can get as low as 3.4 ms if I set it at 2 ms = 89 samples and 96hz. But of course that's not going to get any work done. 
At 48 and 5ms I only get a little better than 44.1. @ 21ms rtl
88.2 gives me 12ms rtl at the 5 ms buffer.

This is great! Thanks a bunch, man. Fingers crossed!

I'm pretty annoyed that the driver is stuck in beta land (purgatory.) Personally I use the 2.5.2 driver. The 3.2.2 driver didn't work as well. I did like the interface better though. I've contacted Focusrite several times about whether or not the driver will ever be out of beta and always get a bureaucratic response. Certainly doesn't give me confidence to by from Focusrite again if my unit ever dies.

Yeah, I think I've made up my mind about my next audio interface purchase and it's RME.

Thanks for the great info (http://beta.focusrite.com/releases/focusrite_usb2_drivers/ Look for the Focusrite USB2 Drivers 3.2.2 and Scarlett MixControl 1.9b12)
Since weeks I tried to figure out, why I'd go up to a RTL of ~ 29ms (256 samples, balanced mode) in order to prevent my system to have drop outs.
With the new driver version I'm down to a RTL of ~ 15ms (64 samples, balanced mode).
Nevertheless: next investment will be a RME PCIe solution. It is no fun to play with TH3 with that latencies...
