It requires the latest version of the libaacplus available online and compiled _without_ fftw support. Debian-multimedia has a libaacplus package that is suitable and also now packages for our ocaml-aacplus binding. In fact, with the forthcoming official beta2 debian package, users should be able to enable aac+ encoding by installing libaacplus-ocaml-dynlink from debian-multimedia without the need to recompile liquidsoap > - On the page under cockbook it is written: "....one Liquidsoap instance > can only use a single processor or core.

Radionomy has a pretty extensive experience with these numbers. Actually, Jef already contributed on this question and we should have put that in our documentation.. I'll try to dig the email he sent. Concerning the coming beta2 release, again, we have introduced the notion of clock. Using clocks it is possible to execute several outputs in parallel and take advantage of multi-core. This is limited to all code not written in OCaml, such as lame mp3 encoding, which is where it is most useful..
