[opus] How to make opus work on a low end device ?

[Jean-Marc Valin]

Hi,

The specs you're listing are pretty low, but I *think* running Opus
encoding should be achievable at 16 kHz. CELT should require less CPU
for encoding than SILK, but for voice, you will need a higher bitrate
with CELT than with SILK to achieve equivalent quality (e.g. 24-40 kb/s
with CELT instead of 16-24 kb/s with SILK).

Cheers,

	Jean-Marc
