Ah-ha!  We just paused the show, and now there are two player fd's,
and the load avg is over one and changing.  The top now that we just
paused is below.

Actually, I don't buy the pause theory.  It's right around 8pm, so my
guess is that we stopped the old recording and have started a new one.
This seems like a more likely place for a state change bug...
