That means vls has to repackage PS into TS, but that should not give 
such a high load. Could you run it under valgrind (same as previous) and 
send me the valgrind log and the cachegrind logs? I especially need the 
latter for timing/cpu consumption!

No sleep, because it messes with your timing at send time, which will 
result in choppy images.
