<pre>For local-only case (client and server on the same machine), compression is
quite redundant as we can assume very high bandwidth so no need to waste CPU
time on compressing/decompressing.
In theory we should first address <a class="bz_bug_link

title="NEW --- - Decouple lipsync from streaming/compression"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=62187">bug#62187</a> but in practice (testing with
varrious OSs), I have observed that we don't really get lipsync when playing HD
videos fullscreen (pretty common scenario now a days). I suspect its because of
decoding of video/audio in the guest combined with compression and
decompression of SPICE stream on the same CPU and CPU being unable to manage
it. Before you ask my host:
CPU: Intel® Core™ i5 CPU M 540 @ 2.53GHz × 4
RAM: 8G</pre>
