[Vorbis-dev] Performance on low-CPU devices

[Martin Vilcans]

Hi!

I'm new to this list. I work at a game development company, and we are 
considering Ogg Vorbis for the audio in a cell phone game. Does anyone 
here have any figures or educated guesses on how much CPU power the 
decoding requires? I guess Tremor is the decoder to use, as the CPU 
doesn't have a floating point unit, but will it be possible to use it 
for playing background music in a cell phone game?

The target platform has an ARM at around 100 MHz. Any ideas about how 
much of the CPU would be used for decoding? Is it faster to decode lower 
bitrates and/or lower sample frequencies?

Thanks in advance for any pointers or information. I'm grateful for any 
information.
