Comment:

 The problem is the use of frontend standby mode not the use of the -v all
 which I just added to see if there were any messages that would reveal the
 problem of increased CPU usage when standby mode kicks in. I normally run
 without the -v setting and the CPU usage is high (30%-60%) when the
 frontend is in standby and the backend starts recording. I would have
 assumed that standby mode would result in a lessening of CPU usage. It
 appears as if there is some busy wait polling started on the frontend when
 the backend starts recording.
