Are there any connections like system:capture -> system:playback?

If it "builds" over time, is it linear, or is it around 2% for a long time,
and then builds to 90% or so?
It smells a bit of floating point denormal-processing, if its creeping up
after a while of not being used. I don't know if/why JACK is performing
floating ops unless there are buffers that need to be combined...

system cap1 \
system cap2 -  system play1
system cap3 /

The above might explain it though - routing multiple inputs to one output.

The above is a "shot in the dark", but as far as I can see it could be a
cause.
