Last night we had this lot recording.
CH5, 7:30PM for 35mins
BBC4, 8PM for 1hr10
Quest, 8PM for 1hr10
CH4, 8PM for 1hr10
BBC1, 8PM for 1hr
BBC1, 9PM for 1hr
CH4, 10PM, 1hr15
BBC1, 10:35PM for 1hr
I took a peek at 8PM when it was doing five recordings and CPU peaked at
19% and iotop showed only 3MBytes/s hitting the hard disk. Loads of
headroom.
I also tested playing three different programs at once (two on frontends
and one on backend) and there were no issues.
At the weekend, I'm going to actually set out to try and find its
limits!
