Without trying it, it is hard to say.  You may be right, the load is so
small that the sluggishness can result from some mutex waits or
something else that wouldn't stand out in a profiler that measures CPU
resources.

In any case, you could profile the old and new version of vdr and see if
there is any obvious difference.
