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

When stopped there are four threads of XMMS, none is taking CPU time.
When playing two more are created, and totally they eat 0.3~0.5% on my
PII/233 (isn't noticeable, is it? :)

>From a look at /proc I find that the player threads eat 0.02s of user
time and 0.2s of kernel time per minute of playing, so it is truly
0.3%.  Therefore, if the time calculated is wrong, it is kernel's fault.
