Is your power steering pump loud?

Hi,
I cannot hear the power steering pump noise over the engine, and the
2.3L engine is not loud by any stretch of the imagination. However, in
the spirit of Jason's last post, I want to ask whether or not people
think their power steering pumps are loud.
I'm told that the sound is worst when the car is stopped (presumably
because pump has to work the hardest) especially in the morning. I
believe that the comment which was made was that it sounded like the
power steering unit of an Oldsmobile (the identity of commenter will
remain hidden for his own protection :-)
So, is the power steering a lot louder than you would like? Or, should
units which sound like those on Oldsmobiles be replaced under warranty?
I drive a Linear. So, perhaps the bigger wheels/tires on Aero will
be tougher to turn and hence more prone to cause power steering to
generate audible, annoying noise?
thanks
Jae
