Why is implementing it correctly not performant? For context I have no idea how rounding is typically implemented anyways.

Of course, if it were faster, that would be a huge win for the open source implementation.

The proprietary ones already take quite a long time to solve: I regularly have 12-24h runs. Perhaps an open source one could do better? But it's not quite as straightforward as reverse engineering a proprietary bitstream.
