Perhaps I should have said "unacceptable TO ME." Because it consumes CPU time
with absolutely no benefit, potentially interfering with playback, slowing
down transcoding or commflagging jobs, etc. Of course, if playback were still
OK, it might be tolerable, but it'd still slow down other processes.
