Note that it's not a one-time thing.  Ideally--if your backend/MySQL 
server system isn't underpowered--you will use it every time you (or 
mythbackend) run(s) mythfilldatabase.  See the linked post for details 
on how to set it up and for information about testing it to see if your 
system can handle it.
