Default Ableton and VC delay compensation

Anybody figured out who is to blame?
I know for sure Ableton treats every plugin in a different way in terms of PDC...
I'm testing VC in every new release and still no joy...
Tried every combination imaginable as:
44.1-48-96Khz sampling rates
lowest buffer settings on my MOTU 828MKII (128buffer@96Khz=2ms)
LIVE button on & Off...
Try it for yourself and you'll see what i mean:

--Open a new Live set
--Load some Midi clip drums from Live's default library
--Load VC in another Midi channel(try LIVE button both on & off)
--Start playing midi clip
--Start switching on & off at a constant rate record enable button on midi clip

Do you here something?
Maybe like something's cutting/clicking the drums
Well guess what...
That's the PDC thingy goin on
Of course with LIVE button enabled it's not so noticable but not perfect

--Now try to delete VC track and try again the switching

Do you hear something?
NOP...Everything's fine now...
Tried the switching thing with other VST's also...
Some of them where PDC problem free some not...

This is the only reason i don't want to use VC...
Now i only use Virus in stand alone mode
