I'm still hoping for some help. Or confirmation that someone else is seeing
the same behavior with the 0.22-fixes branch.

I noticed that after a fresh reboot, mythfrontend only consumes 0.5-1.0% CPU
just sitting on the first menu screen.  Once I go into watch recordings the
first time, it starts consuming 14% cpu.  But even exiting back out to the
same menu screen as previous continues to consume 14% CPU.

Anyone have any other ideas what this might be or how to track it down?  Is
there a verbose setting for the frontend log I should use?  rRght now, it
doesn't indicate anything out of the ordinary.
