I just wanted to add that I just tried playing back a show that was recording 
while the CPU was under load (was compiling stuff), and the recording came 
out all glitchy (big artifacts, jumping in the video, etc).  Dmesg showed 
tons of VIM Restart messages again.  A high CPU load while recording was 
never a problem before...I'm dropping back to 0.3.3y for now.
