Well, then I guess it's all up to how much patience you have when defining
the "maximum" quality. If we consider 1/8th to 1/10th of realtime as
"maximum", we get these numbers:
Original code, -trellis 8: 245.8 seconds, stddev 83.65, PSNR 57.88
Fully patched, -trellis 11: 189.7 seconds, stddev 83.26, PSNR 57.92
However, if checking the runtime_psnr graphs at
http://albin.abo.fi/~mstorsjo/adpcm-graphs/, one notices that the original
(and patch #1 and patch #3) will get better PSNR/runtime if extending the
benchmark to even larger trellis sizes. For the music1 sample, this
happens around sometimes after ~1/15 of realtime, for the other samples it
happens even later than that.
