As far as I understand from the Audacious maintainers 1.3.x blindly
tries to determine filetype by reading it with each plugin
successivly. This means per file in the playlist it needs to do (#
of plugins) * 3 reads. This can cause high load on network mounted
drives and when playing http streams. 

The solution they provided was to disable the plugins you don't
need, thus reducing the number of calls. They also said that in
1.4.x they will check mime-type first (for http streams) which
should hopefully reduce the load a bit.
