I'm running on SVN 14656.

My mythfrontend has been running for about 36 hours now, and I'm
sitting around total memory usage of about 209 Mb.  Restarting
mythfrontend drops its memory usage to about  140 Mb.

Playing different videos (varying codecs) from MythVideo doesn't have
any significant cumulative impact on mythfrontend's memory usage.  If
there was a bug that was causing memory problems, perhaps its been
fixed already?
