The fix committed for that ticket corrected an issue where the recording
quality loop was causing an excessive amount of context switches,
resulting in an excessive amount of wasted CPU usage. The assumption
was that this high CPU load was causing systems with small UDP receive
windows to get starved for resources, and start discarding data.
Following that, it was assumed the lost data issues would be resolved
when the CPU load was resolved. Are you seeing normal CPU usage, but
still experiencing the data loss?
