A transcoding haiku...

Winter becomes spring
Slow crawling, systemic thaw
Email crashes.

A pretty logical guess but nope. It is a bit of an obscure title I admit.

I was doing some video transcoding work (converting digital video files from one format to another, e.g. (legally) converting DVD video_ts MPEG2 files into more web friendly MP4s) on my office PC and I ran two jobs simultaneously and my computer went into a crawl for the better part of two hours. I try not to make the poor thing 'multitask' so much now...
