I observed some memory leaks in the ScheduledRecording class last 
spring but couldn't find the source. There was a fix in that area since 
then but I don't remember when. Post 0.18 for sure. Anyway, the first 
thing I'd look at is memory. A ps -F -C mythbackend in a hourly or 
daily cron job directed to some log file would confirm or eliminate 
this angle.
