Olivier, On a more general note, do you experience the decoding speed of libFLAC as a bottleneck in your application? Decoding speed of FLAC is already best-in-class among lossless audio codecs, so I actually wasn't expecting anyone to object to a (small) decrease in decoding speed. There have been more changes recently that could (slightly) affect decoding speed, but for good reasons. I am aware that the following changes affect decoding speed - https://github.com/xiph/flac/commit/1bec35e33757fc38261b0acfa3c032e720d2baf0 - https://github.com/xiph/flac/commit/63ac1c37bebbda5ca61ad5a05a1d8fba2883f629
Comparing current git to release 1.3.4 for my 64-bit x86 machine this adds up to about 4% slowdown for both 16-bit and 24-bit audio. When using a 32-bit compile, for 16-bit audio this cancels out against the speed gain from the removal of optimizations and for 24-bit audio this compounds to about 10% speed loss. Numbers may vary depending on the CPU specifics. I didn't think this would be a problem, but please speak up (and if possible elaborate on the details) if it is.
