Please retest this with the latest code. There was a bit of unfinished business
related to speecdh support. Even though the speech driver runs in its own
thread now, so that speech synthesis no longer introduces any delay, the eSpeak
driver (and, for all we know, others as well) still takes a significant amount
of time doing what it calls enqueuing the speech synthesis request (probably
due to locks). The latest code removes this delay.
