Comment(by PaulePanter):
Replying to [comment:6 lennart]:
> BTW. as a side note: it is expected that PA's PCU usage increases when
pavucontrol/g-v-c runs, since for volume meters on screen we decrease the
latency of the audio devices so that what you hear and what you see is
neatly in sync. Lower latencies automatically mean higher CPU usage.
In `top` CPU% goes up to 120–130 % for `pulseaudio` and 50–60 % for
`pavucontrol`/`g-v-c`.
> So, you can expect something like 30% or so in the worst case, which
multiplies if you have many cards.
I just have one onboard card.
