Does anyone know how time consuming converting mp3 to a lower bitrate with lame could be on a "real" server?

I build lame into my module and the conversion takes me about 10 seconds on xammp. So I am afraid that using lame in a batch could bend a server to its knees.

So I am really unsure to keep this feature.

These are the settings:
--silent --nores --nohist --mp3input -f s -b 64

You may have a look in xcGal on the way they mass import pictures (making thumbnails and normalised pictures of it). I believe they start some child process or second php function.

I will have a look, but as far as I know GD (or else) is used and GD (or else) has not so much data to compute like lame.
