I've filed:

Darren Moffat,
Yes and no. A earlier statement within this discussion
was whether gzip is appropriate for .wav files. This just
gets a relative time to compress. And relative
sizes of the files after the compression.
My assumption is that gzip will run as

Not entirely related to your maxed CPU problem, but
gzip on PCM audio isn't, as you point out, going to earn you much of

Do you have the output of 'mpstat 5'?

Ian Collins,
My two free cents..
If the gzip was in application space, most gzip's implementations
support (maybe a new compile) a less extensive/expensive deflation
that would consume fewer CPU cycles.
Secondly, if the file objects are being written
I just had a quick play with gzip compression on a filesystem and the
result was the machine grinding to a halt while copying some large
(.wav) files to it from another filesystem in the same pool.
The system became very unresponsive, taking several seconds to echo
keystrokes. The box is a maxed

Hm, that would be a record breaking system. Did you mean 8 GB ?
