Quoting list at onnow.net:

> I think there may be a bit more system required for .20
> RAM especially I think.
> This system is a an AMD 3200 with 512 running FC5 and .20 via RPMS.
> On this top, there is nothing running other than mythfrontend.
> No encoders are recording.  Live TV may be on but that is it.
> Check this TOP out.  Any better ways to diagnose what the load/mem use is?

And then I killed mythfontend and restarted it ( no longer watching

Look at the diff on top now
