My pleasure!  (Heck, I'm just glad to contribute in
some way...)

The majority of deleted recordings were 2.7GB
(one-hour dramas).  I did delete a football game that
had wound up somewhere in the 4-5GB range, and right
now I've got a 5.4GB figure skating show waiting for
my wife to see it before I can nuke it.

I was, however, seeing my freezes with half-hour
programs (~1.2-1-4GB) as well as longer ones.

Best,
    Steve
