Right. > Your original command line was writing the sox output to /dev/null. Right but since then I have simplified the test to just lav2wav sucking. See my previous e-mail: $ time lav2wav file.eli > file.wav INFO: [lav2wav] WAV done 0.58user 12.01system 1:49.86elapsed 11%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (204major+938minor)pagefaults 0swaps > That shouldn't be a time consumer, but as a quick check, switch to > writing to a read file on disk instead. Does that change anything? As above, the lav2wav alone takes almost 2 minutes. > Also, you might want to try running a buffer between the two > processes, that might help as well. Right, once lav2wav is taking all of the CPU I can throw at it and the pipeline to sox still sucks, I will. But right now, lav2rec seems to be the bottleneck. b.
