Fairly ok, although the number of dropped frames is quite high, it's 
aroung 25-30 per hour for me, but it depends on the exact sample rate of 
the soundcard and exact framerate of the source. Also be sure to turn 
off the time synchronization utils during grabbing, like ntpd, if you 
are connected to the network.
