Sorry I am running the SVN trunk from last night but this problem has 
been going of for some time with a few different trunk versions

Library API version     : 0.20.20070327-1
Source code version     : 13451
Network Protocol Version: 34
Options compiled in:
 linux release using_xvmcw using_v4l using_oss using_alsa using_arts 
using_ivtv using_iptv using_live using_lirc using_joystick_menu 
using_x11 using_xv using_xrandr using_xvmc using_xvmc_vld 
using_opengl_vsync using_opengl using_frontend using_backend 
using_bindings_perl


Also looking at phpMyAdmin my mythconverg database is 92.5 MiB and the 
'recordedseek' table is 67.1 MiB of that with 1,467,764 records in it. 
isn't that large for one table?

I will turn on --verbose all and see what it shows.
