Thanks for the patch. I applied it and it give me up to 15% in speed.
Doesn't seem to change the results, which is a good thing (though you
originally forgot a "used=0" in vq_nbest_sign). I'll check a thing or
two and I'll apply to CVS.

Strange... on my PIII, encoding a 10 sec file with --comp 3 --quality 3
takes less than a second (your patch is still a bit faster). How did you
get these timings?

Sending it to the list is a good idea I think. If you want to know what
the code does... it's simply calculating the distance between an input
vector and a list of vectors (codebook) and it returns the id's of the N
closest (n-best) codebook vectors.
