Don't bite my head off, Tuvok, but your "logic" is flawed. Unfortunately 
(?), at the moment I don't really feel like giving another lecture on 
computing system performance analysis.


However, I am mildly interested in this and also have a certain interest in 
having command-line alternatives to Nero for burning CDs, so I'm willing to 
at least add a data point by trying to run this software on my system.

I don't know what sort of system you're using, but as desktops go, mine's 
pretty high-performance: 2.4 GHz processor, PC 3100 RAM; dual-channel 
Ultra-160 SCSI controller with fast disks segregated from slow ones; CD 
recorder on SCSI. I have two Ultra 160 hard drives and one slow one (I 
think it runs at 40 MB/sec, but it could be 20).


So, where do I get this CD recording software you're using? I don't know if 
you built it yourself or got a pre-built binary, but I think I'd like to 
configure and build it myself. Is that an option?

[ See what you can do about that broken shift key, OK? ]


Thanks.
