It is a sad and known fact that having lots of ACLs in your SharePoint database has a negative effect on the performance of your site. What I did not know yet was that changes to the ACL will impact you incremental crawls.

This week I gave a presentation at Winvision and recorded it in Microsoft Office Live Meeting 2007. The resulting recording is a webpage with multiple streams: desktop video, presenter video and audio. The problem is that the codec used doesn't work on x64 systems or Windows 7 (Server). Watching the separate streams isn't really an option because there is no audio included in the video streams. But I got lucky as it seems Microsoft has released a new tool called “Recording Converter for Microsoft Office Live Meeting 2007” only last month.
