Re: [Emacspeak] Swiftmac 2: pre-PR request for testers

[Robert Melton <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

1. Yeah, going to experiment a bit, right now my latency changes seem
to be in the 130ms to 230ms range from turning on spacial audio. Which 
at first testing seems acceptable to me, but I am on high end hardware. 

I might experiment with doing it manually, but the spatial engine has
a nice upside of protecting me from any Apple format changes as it is 
attached to the player which will always support Apples internal format
Core Audio. 

2. With Swiftmac 2.0 -- it tracks far more like the other servers 
handling the queue as expected, I did some silly stuff with swiftmac 1.0 
due to not really understanding some of the clever stuff emacspeak already
does for you, so swiftmac 2 is way better at handling like bulk outputs 
from eshell.
