Thanks for the response!
The source(s) is a camera stream 4mpbs RTSP 1080p30fps. I'll have to get the logs later when I'm at that computer. Without Source Record configured these streams/sources seem to have near zero performance impact on my system (though obviously encoding is more demanding than decoding).
Does it make sense at all that there is this processing overhead even while not actually recording, just having the filters configured?
(It's also unclear to me if e.g. the NVENC AV1 encoder should work or not - the warning that NVENC should not be used seems to me a bit vague?)

First of all my feedback on the update 0.5.0:
It fixed my "save replay hotkey" issue but I was fooled as the hotkey setting is no longer a separate hotkey setting but is now a hotkey setting on the scene or source where one has the source record filter.
I run OBS on Linux (currently Ubuntu 26.04) and the downloaded zip file is in the old legacy format e.g. the source-record.so is under .../bin/64bit/source-record.so. No big problem, I created the new OBS plugin location and moved the source-record.so and the "data" folder to this new location.
One small annoyance is that I nearly always have to "force quite" on exit when this plugin is in use (it crashes on Windows), but that's all it is, an annoyance. From the obs.log - Source Record: synchronous stop timed out
@frodef. I have found source record to be an excellent plugin but I often have to play around to get it to work like I want. I've got 3 record filters set-up working nicely and my notebook configuration is not as good as yours (far less RAM, and an older NVIDIA card, NVIDIA RTX 4050). Finally, 60FPS is too much for my setup.
