I know that there are some inefficiencies moving data between libsoup and
gstreamer, specifically having to memcpy buffers.  (Libsoup doesn't have the
API to do this well.)  I'd be happy to work on any issues here, either in
libsoup or in gstreamer, or both.

However, before doing that, I'd like to see good profiling data (i.e., from
oprofile, with backtraces) showing where the CPU is being used, with both
recent gstreamer and libsoup.  Profiling on x86-64 is fine, doesn't need to be
on the embedded device.
