Bug Description
Here are some average statistics of ripping between 50-100 cds.
In sound-juicer ripping in Warty, the average speed was between 3x-4x.
Currently, in Hoary, the average speed is between 1.2x-1.7x.
That seems unreasonably slow. The same hardware running Windows and Media
Player can rip at around 7x. My much-slower Mac Mini rips at 12x-16x.
Enabling and disabling DMA doesn't seem to make a difference (unless you have to
reboot after you switch the setting).
If possible, the rip+encode speeds should be close to what the user experiences
on Windows and Macintosh so it doesn't seem burdensome.

There is an upstream thread on gnome bugzilla that talks about earlier numbers bugzilla. gnome.org/ show_bug. cgi?id= 116882
(the ones in the 4x range) here: http://
I've now had two other confirms that rip speeds are in the 1.3-1.7x range now,
for some reason. Also, on my main computer the rip takes a very small cpu
percentage.
