Well, just gave it a go.
MythWeb doesn't show recording activity but the log does, as well as a
bunch of:

2008-06-22 19:39:19.536 DevRdB(0) Error: Driver buffers overflowed
2008-06-22 19:39:26.437 DevRdB(0) Error: Driver buffers overflowed
2008-06-22 19:39:33.697 DevRdB(0) Error: Driver buffers overflowed
2008-06-22 19:39:40.409 DevRdB(0) Error: Driver buffers overflowed
2008-06-22 19:39:47.446 DevRdB(0) Error: Driver buffers overflowed
2008-06-22 19:39:55.415 DevRdB(0) Error: Driver buffers overflowed
2008-06-22 19:40:02.514 DevRdB(0) Error: Driver buffers overflowed

So I don't think the backend will do much work tonight.
No, these errors normally don't occur.

As the behaviour of the system is being influenced quite a lot valgrind
might not find the assumed leaks. (?)
