well, a poor boy like me uses a dual pentium pro 200 running both
icecast and liveice...
currently i use a liveice.cfg as follows without coming close to
overloading the system. darkice on the other hand has no way of
accomplishing this, nor does it's quality match liveices. this is what
Akos is attempting to get into darkice. i personally am looking forward
to it due to the frequent problems i have with icecast/liveice combo.
Another 'feature' suggestion for darkice:
allow darkice to be built *without* ogg/vorbis.
