I think OHJ's are a disaster waiting to happen when busy
That rather depends... at Old Warden last year there were over 100 aircraft arrived in a couple of hours. I believe the landing rate topped that of Heathrow. It was overhead joins for all with >10 in the circuit when I arrived. A well known retired ATCO was on duty in a FISO capacity, everything went like clockwork.
