FYI, I got the obfs add-on to build yesterday and started some testing.  I
mounted a 15 gig partition with the obfs addon.  I then started up
VideoRecorder and had it record to the obfs partition.  I let it run :-)

About 15 minutes later, I discovered that VideoRecorder had stopped.  It
was completely locked up.  I had to kill it quite forcefully.  Out of
curiousity, I ran 'file' on the file it had been recording to, but even
that command locked up on me, and I couldn't kill it.  So I tried to
reboot and got dumped into KDL.  Of course, not too surprisingly, the
video file (which had been about 500 megs, iirc) was gone when the
partition was remounted.

Anyway, I'll try to keep testing tonight.
