[LAU] General perfrmance question

[Julien Claassen]

Hi everyone!
   I just fooled around with LinuxSampler and ecasound, my favourite recording 
tool. And I wonder:
is a system with 512M of memory and a 2.8gHz supposed to handle a running LS 
and recording at the same time. When I stress LS alone (no recording started) 
I can get it up to about 20-28% CPU usage and memory usage of LS was 82%. 
There's no GUI on my system and not much else which is eating at the CPU and 
memory. The other CPU costs are minimal, estimate of 4-6%.
   If that kind of system is supposed to handel my demands, I should look for 
troublemakers, because LS gave me glitches while recording.
   Kindest regards
         Julien
