           Summary: directx sound enhancements in 0.9.6 degrade performance
                    in Diablo II
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.6.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-directx-dsound
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org
        ReportedBy: bafraid2b1(a)hotmail.com


The directx sound enchancements introduced in version 0.9.6 appear to be
adversely affecting the performance of Diablo II.  After upgrading from 0.9.5 to
0.9.6, the sound becomes choppy and the game becomes sluggish. Previously, when
using version 0.9.5, these problems did not manifest. Reverting back to version
0.9.5 shows increased performance.

The test system is a 700Mhz PIII with 384MB of memory running Fedora Core 4. 
Wine was installed from the Fedora 4 RPMS: wine-0.9.5-2.fc4.i386.rpm and
wine-0.9.6-1.fc4.i386.rpm respsectively.
