So your mp3 takes twice as long to play? Hmm... that is a problem, DROP
THE ARCHITECTURE NOW!

Do you mean the mp3 consumes twice as much CPU time to decode? It's also
a dodgy benchmark, after all, are using mpg123, the one of chuncks of
ASM to make it go fast that hardly works on any architectures, or
mpg321? Which pretends to be mpg123 and has two modes, zero buffer or
eat my CPU.
