hello,
when encoding really large files (cd-quality, wav, >500 megs) with lame
(via the mlame script, with encoder "nice -n 19" and 
options="--alt-preset standard -ms" the following happens:

everything starts fine:
LAME version 3.91  (http://www.mp3dev.org/)
Using polyphase lowpass  filter, transition band: 18671 Hz - 19205 Hz
Encoding test.wav to test.mp3
Encoding as 44.1 kHz VBR(q=2) stereo MPEG-1 Layer III (ca. 7.3x) qval=2
    Frame          |  CPU time/estim | REAL time/estim | play/CPU |    ETA
  9400/134282 ( 7%)|    3:52/   55:26|    4:38/ 1:06:23|   1.0546x| 1:01:44
128 [  84] %%
[..]

but after some time 
the cpu time / estim dissapears:
    Frame          |  CPU time/estim | REAL time/estim | play/CPU |    ETA
134280/134282(100%)|1193046 h/    0:00| 1:07:06/ 1:07:06|   0.0000x|    0:00
here the job is already finished, but 2 frames seem to be missing too (which
did not appear to be a problem at the end of the file btw).

my system:
suse 7.1 with kernel 2.2.18-suse (which is 2.2.18 with some patches applied by
suse such as reiserfs afaik)
gcc 2.95.2

maybe someone can test, if the same problem appears on other systems because
it is a bug in lame, or if just my system is broken.

thanks
        wernfried
