>Environment:

	gettext-0.10.35, glib-1.2.7, gtk-1.2.7, libxml-1.8.6

>Description:

	Even when playing a .wav (so nothing to decompress...)
	xmms chews up all cpu cycles it can get, even hitting
	pause doesn't change that...  and it also doesn't seem
	to do any buffering at all, it keeps skipping (even when
	playing just a .wav) in situations where e.g. bplay_gramo
	didn't skip _once_.

	It looks like a really nice program but these two things make
	it so much less useful than it could be... :(

	And right now as i type this it just died like this:

	Fatal error 'Cannot set scheduling timer' at line ? in file /dnes4/usr/w/usr/home5/cvs/src31/src/lib/libc_r/uthread/uthread_kern.c (errno = ?)

	Oh and it could also stat() at least .wav files to get the
	length instead of trusting the header for that because
	thats not always right...

>How-To-Repeat:

	just start it and look at `top'.  and then listen to it
	when the system is loaded...

>Fix:

	i with i knew.  (well other than running it on a spare box
	thats always idle enough, if you have one...)
