Not understanding why I could not get alsa-lib/test/latency.c to work
well, I decided to run Benno's latency test. It has been a long time
since I did... The results are surprising, and nothing like the excellent
results I have seen posted here.
$ ./do_tests none 3 128 0 256
http://193.145.55.36/latencytest/
(yes, I use a very small size for the disk tests, but even then!)
Something is definitely very wrong here. I am running kernel
2.4.13 patched with preempt-kernel-rml-2.4.13-2.patch
$ cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
cpu family : 6

I will check now what happens with 2.4.14 and Andrews LL patch...
