Hi Gurus (I hope that's the correct plural!)
My mythbuntu 10.04 backend is misbehaving. I've turned it right off
(not disconnected the mains, will do that too) but the problem persists,
which seems to be some sort of memory leak as the memory % keeps
climbing until the box GUI becomes incredibly slow. The 2 CPU cores now
run at a minimum of 60%.
top gives me:

The software is up to date and I'm running myth 0.23-fixes 26863. I've
not much to it so its unlikely something I've done recently.
Can anyone suggest where to from here?
