Hi Olivier,
Good stuff!

Feel free to join in.
Here's a potential problem (but I could be misguided...
so you guys tell me)...
- Mobile processors generally do NOT have good
floating point power. Sometimes by a factor
of 1000 flops.
- LADSPA and LV2 are built to process 32-bit
floating point PCM data, and have no provision
for processing 16-bit integer PCM data.
So, trying to use LADSPA or LV2 in their current state will
probably cause bottlenecks (either from doing FP math or
from doing format convervsions to do integer math).
Is this a Real Problem?
