I've used it some with speech dispatcher but notice a lot of
hesitation and even momentary drop-outs both in Orca and in speeckup
with speechd-up.  I have a fast enough machine with plenty memory (2
GB) but still the sluggishness.  Anything I can look for to make
Cepstral perform better? I suppose it's got to do with using the
generic module.  Too bad I can't come up with a direct module for
Cepstral like espeak.
