Comment(by Christian Güdel <cg at dmesg.ch>):

 Mark, you asked me to add my hardware setups (this is happening on
 multiple machines) to this ticket:

 I tested this with both a remote and a local backend. The remote backend
 was the same across all frontends, the local backend obviously was the
 same as the frontend.

 Remote backend:
 - Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU     E8400  @ 3.00GHz
 - 2x 2048 MB DDR2-800 RAM
 - Recordings partition is on a sw-raid5 spread across five 400 GB drives
 on an onboard ICH10 controller
 - Capture card is a Hauppauge Nova-S2 (Multimedia video controller:
 Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio Decoder, 14f1:8800)
 - This machine also runs Cacti, BackupPC, a Samba-Daemon, MySQLd, cups and
 some other smaller services
 - Connected via Gbit copper ethernet
 - Runs Gentoo Linux, Kernel 2.6.30-gentoo-r4, gcc version 4.3.2, glibc
 2.8_p20080602-r1, 64bit

 First frontend
 - AMD Athlon64 4200+
 - 1x 2048 MB DDR2-667 RAM
 - NVidia GeForce 9400 GT with 512 MB dedicated video ram
 - Capture card when used as a local backend was a KNC1 TV Station
 (Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7146, 1131:7146)
 - Storage for recordings was on a 250GB SATA 2.5" drive
 - Connected via 100Mbit copper ethernet

 Second frontend
 - Intel Atom N330 2x 1.6GHz
 - 1x 2048 MB DDR2-800 RAM
 - NVidia ION chipset with 512 MB shared memory
 - Capture card when used as a local backend was a KNC1 TV Station
 (Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7146, 1131:7146)
 - Storage for recordings was on a 250GB SATA 2.5" drive
 - Connected via 100Mbit copper ethernet

 Both frontends run from a read-only squashfs-image stacked with a tmpfs,
 both a running 2.6.30-gentoo-r7, glibc glibc-2.9_p20081201-r2, nvidia-
 drivers-190.36

 If you need more info, let me know
