I added "-march nocona -m64 -O2" yesterday evening, rebuilt, and played around with it. ( http://www.restivo.org/blog/podpress_trac/web/232/0/ams-drone.ogg ) With those flags, it used about the same CPU than the released 1.88 version.  

I also used it in rehearsal last night, and it seemed very reliable and stable too.

I'll have a look at your ams.pro and try those too.

Thanks for doing the "qt4 dance", and giving AMS a more user-friendly open/save dialog box. That's a big help right there. Plus the --name option is a big win too (I usualy run two AMS instances: one --poly 4, and one mono).
