pi@Zorin:~ $ ps -Lfu squeezeboxserver
ah, the -L modifier would show every thread of a process, which triples the number of spotty "processes".
spotty-hf -c /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/cache/spotty/a7912f50 -n Cabinetbox --disable-audio-cache --bitrate 96 --player-mac 00:04:20:12:82:40 --lms 192.168.0.107:9000 --disable-discovery
A few explanations: --bitrate 96 is for the Connect daemon only. It doesn't stream, but still has to download the data. Playback would use whatever you set it to (most likely 320kbps).
--disable-discover would indicate that either the daemon had crashed a lot before, or that you (accidentally) disabled it in the settings.
Which leads me to a question I've asked before (I think): what OS are you running? What other services? One reason to have to disable discovery would be that there's another service running on your system used to announce itself in the network. If discovery is disabled, the daemon is only visible to Spotify if it's connected to the Spotify's servers at all times. I'm not sure how well it does recover from temporary disconnections.
...which makes me think I should probably monitor this, too: just checked my own account. And indeed, my office SB has disappeared from Spotify. As it's not in my local network I would only see it if it was known the Spotify servers. Which it isn't right now. Maybe there was a network interruption while I was away? Could it be you suffer from (even short) network disconnections during the night? Some internet providers do this regularly (eg. daily).
the logfile I dropped in your dropbox is unmodified. What is a custom client_id?
