Cache miss rates would be the same or lower with flac. In the end you are processing the same amount of data and it's a lot and it's size is determined by the DECODED file size, the ENCODED file size is lower with flac and you actually have to process all of it, even if wav is just a raw pcm stream.
So if your rationale holds, wav must be worse than flac. -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote and *New: iPeng for iPad*, at penguinlovesmusic.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93970 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
