Comment (by pbennett):

 Replying to [comment:14 amb@…]:
 > I thought that if the backend idle timeout is zero and it is woken by a
 recording starting then it will record and then sleep again.  Everything I
 wrote about the backend idle timeout was based on this premise.
 No - if the backend idle timeout is zero the backend will never shut down,
 and consequently the concept of it being woken for a recording does not
 apply. Some people leave their backend running 24x7.
 > If I'm wrong then I apologise for the confusion that my comments on this
 setting created.
