What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
3.33.2011.1026

Please provide any additional information below.

i have a virtual win xp sp2 box (vmware esxi).
i run virtual audio cable to create virtual sound cards...
there is a radio automation program which outputs its sound to virtual sound 
card 1
there is a winamp running with sound solution dsp plugin to calibrate the 
sound. takes as inpur virtual sound card 1 and outputs to virtual sound card 2.
finally there is edcast standalone, which streams to a local server (HE-AAC 
256kbps), to a remote server (mp3 128kbps & HE-AAC 256kbps).
i noticed that, with all 3 encoders, when edcast tries to access the local 
metadata file, freezes..
pc's cpu load is at 35% with 2 encoders, 45% with all three... the interval to 
look for the metadata file is 20".

when it freezes, streams drop the bitrate, and a few seconds after they come to 
normal..

The issue is obviously with accessing the local metadata file, nothing to do 
with vmware, vac etc etc - whilst edcast pretends to be written multi-threaded, 
I've found that it is not - so, any delay in, say, reading the file, or a 
hiccup on sending to one of the servers, will bring it all down, either 
momentarily, or completely

this will NOT be an issue in v4 - but you'll have to wait until v4 is done
