I finally got around to set up an entirely unqualified and 
unscientific comparison between rubberband and the 'stretch' utility 
from the pvoc package (which basically is not much more than a dumb 
and straightforward application of Mark Dolson's original phase vocoder 
implementation).

The comparison uses a 25-second audio fragment containing mostly 
accordeon, voice and some sparse bass/percussion.  Audio is stretched 
to double duration.  This isn't claimed to provide much insight of 
interest to anyone but myself, but if you find this kind of thing 
entertaining, text and audio output can be found at
