Hi,
This patch improves compression a very tiny bit on average, but
up to 0.1 percentage point for classical music. I haven't found
any tracks that show worsening compression with this patch.

Subject: [PATCH] Improve LPC order guess
The recent compression preset retuning improved upon most material
but it the few tracks that show regression are usually classical
music. This patch improves compression by improving the LPC order
guess, of which classical music benefits most.
Improvement is 0.007% on average but up to 0.1%. I haven't seen
regressions for any of my test samples.
