I was recording some cds for a friend. He brought his laptop over to copy
other things. 3 machines were involved. the laptop, a diskless machine
(used for just plugging in ide/scsi drives to read them), and the machine
with files and the recorder.
While recording a cd from an image that was over NFS (100mbit connection for
all 3 machines), I was transfering about 1.5gb from the machine with the
burner to the laptop. cdrecord's FIFO never went below 95%.
I have a recorder in my linux machine at work. I have compiled kernels
(using make -j 3 or 4) on that machine while recording a cd.
The only thing incommon between these 2 machines is the fact that I was in X
the whole time. I've never tried switching consoles.
When you said between tracks, were you recording an audio disk? Most of my
burns are data.
