The main downside is that each registered applications will get their own subbuffers resulting in a lot of memory usage depending on your session configuration. This can get out of hand quickly, especially on systems withs lots of cores and unknown number of instrumented applications. If you completely control the runtime, for example when doing benchmarking or simple analysis, feel free to use what make more sense to you as long as you understand the pitfalls of each mode.
