it's kind of hard to measure absolutely precisely, 
but it looks like that
-vc null -vo null -ao pcm -aofile x.wav 
is the same speed as
-vc null -vo null -ao pcm -aofile x.wav -hardframedrop

That's life for you, said McDunn.  Someone always waiting for someone 
who never comes home.  Always someone loving something more than that 
thing loves them.  And after awhile you want to destroy whatever 
that thing is, so it can't hurt you no more.
