Why doesn't asterisk clock to the 1000 interrupts per second instead 
of the incoming audio?  Were there no interrupts available when it 
started?  Even if you had no card you could use the ztdummy module 
and even though that might be off by a bit, surely it'd sound better 
than a connection which is experiencing packet loss?

How much work would be required to change this?  I guess it couldn't 
really be an option because of the totally different structure...

Would it be possible for one person to make those changes or would it 
require the authors of all modules to recode?
