btw., just to insert some hard data: usability studies place the acceptance threshold for delays to around 300 milliseconds.

If the computer does not 'respond' (in a real or a fake, visible or audible way) to their input within 0.3 seconds they get annoyed emotionally.

You mean like hitting 'skip commercial' on the remote, and 2 minutes later
when the commercials are almost over, then it happens.  Yeah users get a
bit peeved at that.  Fortunately that particularly behaviour is somewhat
rare.  5 to 10 seconds is more common and sometimes it works fine.

I generally don't see any delay at all when doing that,
even when the Mythtv system is very busy on multiple recordings.
But then, I also don't use the huge LIRC stack for the simple R/C either.
