[vorbis] Current hardware requirements for decoding? (skipping problem)

The vorbis FAQ mentions that decoding vorbis should use roughly the same 
resources as decoding MP3's, but that the current source is not optimized. So 
what is the current requirement? I have a Pentium 133 with 64 megs and I 
cannot get .ogg files to play without skipping. I've tried encoding .wav 
files and downloading .ogg files from www.vorbis.com and playing them on 
Winamp with Windows and XMMS and ogg123 on Linux and I always get skipping 
problems. However, .mp3 files play flawlessly on Winamp and XMMS (though not 
on mpg123 for some reason).
