Project:                    ALSA - driver
Issue ID:                   1538
Category:                   PCI - intel8x0
Reproducibility:            always
Severity:                   major
Priority:                   normal
Status:                     new
Distribution:               Gentoo Linux
Kernel Version:             2.6.14

Summary:                    Latency was better on earlier version
Description: 
I don't know what category which is best for this - but I'm comparing Linux
kernel 2.6.10 and 2.6.14. 

Using I82801DBICH4, version 1.0.10rc1, which is bundled with Linux 2.6.14
- the performance is much weaker than when using kernel 2.6.10 (don't
remember the driver version there).

On 2.6.10 I was able to use a buffer size down to 128 bytes, but now the
lowest I can go is 512. And the sound is still crispy.

The driver's buffer size didn't change.

What is the output of "aplay -D hw:0 -v --period-size=32 --buffer-size=64
-t raw -f dat /dev/zero"?

Description: 
I don't know what category which is best for this - but I'm comparing Linux
kernel 2.6.10 and 2.6.14. 

Using I82801DBICH4, version 1.0.10rc1, which is bundled with Linux 2.6.14
- the performance is much weaker than when using kernel 2.6.10 (don't
remember the driver version there).

On 2.6.10 I was able to use a buffer size down to 128 bytes, but now the
lowest I can go is 512. And the sound is still crispy.

I wanted to see the beginning of the output.  But the "avail" values show
that the buffer has a size of 64 frames.

OK.. I withdraw this.. The reason for the difference was because of a
kernel parameter Timer frequency. (Under CPU type and features). A
recently added parameter?

I've set this to 1000 Hz and then it's perfect.

Sorry for false alarm.
