Checked now http://dict.leo.org/?lp=ende&lang=de&searchLoc=0&cmpType=relaxed&relink=on§Hdr=on&spellToler=std&search=compile and found "to compile a catalog" to be matching the process of preparing what should be burned to disk. So if Benjamin asks for that task, it is no problem at all to interrupt collecting the stuff and doing other CPU or I/O intensive works with the machine. I think he means the post compilation process of burning the data, which can be interfered by stressing the PC with other tasks. Only testing can answer that for a specific system. I think k3b too has a switch to run in dummy mode (laser off) and a protocol window to see, if the burn process was badly affected by something.
