The core is typically very CPU and disk intensive, so capturing at the
same time that the core is processing something could be very very bad
for both of them.  Also, if your engage server is also on the same
machine you now have *three* distinct sets of users accessing the same
hardware in a fairly intense way.  It's possible, take
testallinone.usask.ca:8080 for example, but it requires some exceedingly
beefy hardware.  The example above also does not have a real capture
agent, it's only using a demo capture which is just copied from source
file to output file.

I know Teltek is doing something similar with Galicaster, in that the
CAs are used as worker nodes when they aren't capturing.  You'd have to
speak with Rubencino or someone else on their team for more information
though, I'm not terribly familiar with their product.

Possible.  Very difficult.  We thought about something similar here at
USask, making the host machine the CA, and running the presenter's
machine in a VM.  This was mainly scuttled by our local in-room
technical folks who, understandably, are leery of letting us experiment
with production equipment :)
