If you install the kernel src debs, you can do a make menuconfig,
which will allow you access to the kernels fine tuning, and one of
the option buried in the menu's is to turn on a config option call
preempt-rt or preempt-realtime. This changes the IRQ handling to
make the IRQ's be handled much quicker at the expense of making
other stuff wait a few microseconds.
One should also mention, that for a normal user a realtime kernel is a
bad idea, the GUI will not perform better.
That is highly dependant on the kernel. At the present time, the version
I built is about 25 fps faster than the raspbian kernel it replaces.
And even that is an older build.
