That was my assumption too.
After reading the comments here, however, it might be, in some cases,
useful to know what versions of the tools/libs/etc were used to build a
certain MythTV version to rule out known issues with the tools/libs.

After the restart, I got these figures so far:

%CPU %MEM    VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME
 6.8 10.7 433740 104748 ?       Ssl  Jul02  52:04
 7.8 13.7 461952 133204 ?       Ssl  Jul02 172:21
 8.0 14.6 471740 142304 ?       Ssl  Jul02 293:00

Yes, early figures but similar trends. Maybe, it's too soon to say, we
see a higher growth rate. Perhaps due to the EPG I enabled for some
radio channels?
