Does it not strike anyone else that this kind of memory requirement for
a STB is absolutely ridiculous?
OK, 1.5GB is probably overkill, but the 256MB I have in my FE/BE has, as
of 0.20, become far too small to be able to run a full myth system in.
Even with a 1G of swap, during a mythfilldatabase the machine thrashes
the swap and frequently the OOM killer is invoked and ends up killing
mysqld.
Why is Myth using so much memory as of 0.20?
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
6846 root 0 0 165m 39m 11m S 0.0 15.9 365:30.06 mythfrontend
8153 root 0 0 206m 15m 9m S 0.0 6.4 11:44.56 mythbackend
Like seriously... 206MB for the backend and 165M for the frontend?
Is this just my system or are most peoples 0.20 systems showing the same
kind of memory use?
