Hey you MAD, MAD crowd, this is just Nawhead giving you a little lowdown into the new release's speed improvement results. :)
I have a Celeron 400 with Windows 98 (original). I used Another Task Manager to isolate the decoder thread and get the results. I did three test runs on different bitrate MP3's, getting the average after at least a minute of playback.
[please use a fixed width font to view the following table]
| 0.12.2 beta | 0.12.1 beta --------------------------------------------------- 192 Stereo | 8.67/8.85/8.58 | 9.10/9.13/9.14 160 Stereo | 8.85/8.86/8.70 | 9.32/9.16/9.26 128 Joint Stereo | 9.06/8.91/8.88 | 9.14/9.20/9.25

Thanks for the release Rob!
