Full Discussion: Determining Values for NIce and Priority items in limits.conf file
Operating Systems Linux Determining Values for NIce and Priority items in limits.conf file Post 302777213 by DGPickett on Thursday 7th of March 2013 01:07:38 PM

Well, infrequent -- once you underrun and it writes a glitch-gap, you have all the time in the world to get back to writing, presumably after buffers are full again, but too many times on one CD/DVD and the bandwidth and capacity are impacted. It might be more forgiving on data CDs, since they are internally segmented. If a music CD is full 600 MB with 12 tracks, the average track is 50 MB, so 16 megs is a good percentage. Classical music albumns might have very few, larger tracks compared to rockNroll, like 11:30 for Beethoven's 2nd Symphony in D Major, Movement 2 Larghetto = 100 MB.
