<p>Each frame is generally 160 samples, which is 320 bytes, which is 20ms 
at 8khz.   (For narrow-band).  The encoded size will depend on what 
settings you use, but it will always be much less than that (like 1/10 
the size).

So, your 160 byte encoded frame sounds awfully large..

[I'm guessing this has nothing to do with Mozilla :)]
