What kind of performance problems are you seeing?
There's no sense in doing all kinds of stuff to improve performance if
you don't have a way to measure it.

PulseAudio is already very modular. This means that if you don't load
these modules, there will be no performance penalty. IIRC OSS and RTP
modules are not activated in the default default.pa config file.

AM_CFLAGS has nothing to do with this. Please., if you don't
understand stuff, don't try to tinker with it.

Don't do this at the Makefile.am level, do it at configure time. For
OSS you can pass --disable-oss-output. RTP cannot be disabled, but as
I said earlier, you only pay for it when actually using the module
(and 2 secs extra compile time, I guess).
