What do mean by "call" here (function call, voice call, ...)?

Ecasound always writes at a constant rate (xx samples per second, in
blocks of size -b:xxx samples). There is always some buffering in
stdout/stdin pipes, but compared to the amount of audio data these buffers
are very small => you have to read/write at the same rate as ecasound
does.
