the setuid bug is fixed.. and making x11amp set uid root or runned by root will make x11amp play in realtime which will make the cpu usage even lower than played by a user.
Can't you just grab realtime priveledges and then throw away all priveledge? Or even better run a seperate program that runs a restricted list of programs with realtime scheduling but without priveledge?
