I've been running a Myth system for 9 months now, with programming for
113 channels, 125 videos and 1700 music tracks (for a total of 411,682
records as of now) and I keep it between 35-50 MB. I usually optimize my
database once a week, removing deleted data with phpMyAdmin.
I would say the size of the 'mythconverg' database is probably not your
biggest problem, as far disk usage is concerned.

I'm about to repartition, leaving everything except recordings in an

not discover that I've made the ext3 too small, and I'd rather not
waste gigs making it too big.
The only thing I have no idea about is whether the mysql database
tends to grow monotonically or not, and how large it typically gets.
Can somebody give me an idea of how large a database typically is
after Myth has been used a long while, or how fast it grows? I'm
guessing that deleting a recording will correctly flush everything
else associated with it (cutlist, mythcomflagging, etc), but does the
DB keep any records of -everything- I've ever recorded, and will those
be likely to expand to large proportions? (Basically, does the DB
bloat/leak as time goes on...)
