Quick & Dirty test - shutdown Mythbackend and MySQL, see what 
happens. If SSH speeds up again, start up MySQL and see what happens. 
And so on.

Have a look at the output from "top", what programs are running ?
Also have a look at network traffic. "netstat -anp" will show you all 
the open ports (listeners) and active network connections. Something 
like "iptraf" will show you network traffic (as will other tools).
