Okay, patched and booted.  Ripping occurred.  Results:

LiteOn LTD163: _exactly_ the same
Plextor PX-W2410A: nearly _twice_ as slow (64 min cd in 9:50)

What else could I be doing wrong?  Did I mention that I am using ide-scsi?
Maybe that has something to do with it?

I don't understand your calculation.  Was mine incorrect?

I told my kid that his childhood was being stolen by a couple of computer
geeks.  He's only two.  Luckily, he didn't care.
