Comment 3 for bug 200761

I'm experiencing the same.

Gutsy, PPA backport of 0.21 ubuntu1, 64-bit

--noupnp keeps the memory and cpu usage at bay.

This killed my backend during the night, apport could not even get enough RAM to make a report bigger than 35kB.

Now running the backend with upnp enabled through valgrind as per laga's instructions on IRC.

valgrind --leak-check=full --error-limit=no --show-reachable=yes --log-file=logfile -v -- /usr/bin/mythbackend --daemon --logfile /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log --pidfile /var/run/mythtv/mythbackend.pid | tee backend.log

I'll post the logs there when done.
