Hello,

In an attempt to make the sound skip less, I increased mol priority with
nice.  It did not make improvement on the sound by I had the impression
that Mac OS X was running faster and was more responsive.  I didn't do
any timing measurements however.

In case you want to try it, you can use the "nice" command or you can
"r"enice it in top.  Let me know if you think the same thing.

David
