Receipt SO in Background

Hello all, 

Currently, we have all of our Sites set to Receipt SO in Background on the Manufacturing → General. According to the help, setting this flag can significantly increase the number of receipts possible when back flushing (we backflush all components on Product Structures) and automatic operation reporting (all Work Centers are set to auto receive on last operation step).

I considering disabling this flag so that receipts are processed online. However, I am concerned that there may be an unintended consequence of shop order receipts failing due to the system being overwhelmed.  

Is there any  way to determine if this would in fact be an issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

For most companies it works fine to execute the shop order receipts online even with Backflush and auto report of operations. 

But especially if you have serial tracked manufactured parts with large lot size and many components, it might take a considerable amount of time to create all the transactions why background processing is preferred.
