I've think I have gotten to the true cause of my VPN/DSL performance issue
on Ubuntu 9.10 SRSS 4.2. It is the black eye of a number of Linux
distributions, Pulse Audio.

I was experiencing horrible performance over VPN/DSL. I removed pulse audio
with the following command:

sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio

I then rebooted. The latency from the utcapture command dropped from 32066
to 35.

So, now how do we fix it? Via my Netopia DSL modem admin interface I could
see many tx packet discards. It looks like pulse audio is transmitting an
huge amount of data which clobbers the performance. What is causing pulse
audio to transmit so much data when I am not using any audio applications?

Thanks, PLA
