I don't think it's VM. I checked on that, too (I forgot to mention something about that when I posted my last question.

I ran the following:
sar -p 1 100
sar -q 1 100

and carefully watched: no pageouts (or pageins, for that matter) when iTunes was skipping.

What OS does your 300 MHz blue G4 have? (Actually, if it's blue and 300 MHz, wouldn't it be a G3? I think my old G4 350 MHz was the first one to come out. Like you, I don't get any iT stutters on that one-- only on my new 17" PB 1.67 GHz.) What about your Mini?

I have had similar problems with an audio application I have been writing.
I suspect this is a problem with Virtual Memory paging portions of the audio
buffer in and out. I base this on the fact that I have no dropouts on a
300 MHz old blue G4 machine with 1 GB of physical ram, and I get lots of
dropouts on a 1.2 GHz mac mini with 256 MB of memory. In all fairness, I
have not looked into this all that much yet, so it's a guess at this point.
