I'm thinking of switching my DAW from PC to MAC. So, now allready testing on my Mac Mini to find out if all works fine.

But, when using the Mac Mini + RME Fireface 800 + Cubase I get dropouts at 55% CPU usage. Latency at 1024 samples.

I did some more testing:

Mac Mini + build in audio + Cubase + 1024 samples: dropouts at 90% cpu usage - fine!
Mac Mini + FF 800 + Logic + 1024 samples: dropouts at 90% cpu usage - also fine!

It should be possible to use all of the CPU resources with Cubase + RME FF 800 under OSX, right?

What am I missing here?
What's the problem and more important, what's the solution?

Many thanks in advance!
