[vorbis] Why is ogg123 so much slower than XMMS?

[Rainy]

On a PII233 system running linux with ogg-vorbis-RC2,
when playing a 2-min 48kbps ogg file, ogg123 takes much more CPU time
than XMMS (several seconds with ogg123 vs. less than one second
for all XMMS threads added up).  Since the pids are the same, I
am sure that XMMS did not create new threads when playing one song.

I think this has to do with soundcard interaction.
