Hehe, I dont work QRO so I dont have pileups ;-)) 
Also I work only S&P because its more effective for QRP.
But it is a nice feature. Sometimes I run audiocity parallel to the RX
and record with 8khz Mono. Not HiFi, but more than enough for cw ;-)
This is very helpful for me, because I can compare after the contest
with the exchange in the log. But I'm running recorder only if the
exchange is complicated. The bonus is I have learning material for the
next contest ;-)

In this case I assume maybe the kernel release the bus, could you test
with more slower settings for the PCI in the bios?
