Just to clear things up a bit. My resampler is not yet fully implemented
in fixed-point, only the inner loop is so far (though the rest is
planned). Although I recently made quite a few changes to the API, it
should be stabilising now (but I can't promise yet). Based on (very)
quick testing I did recently, my resampler should be a bit faster than
libsamplerate and have comparable (probably slightly lower for now)
quality at equal filter length.

At thins point, I'm quite interested on any feedback about the API,
implementation, anything. If there's anything you don't like (e.g.
something that's hard to get right when using it), please speak up now
when it's still easy to make changes.
