Can the calculation not be pushed down to the database? Makes for a
smaller resultset. This is the query I use in my own script:

SELECT sum(filesize) AS totbytes,
                    sum( ((unix_timestamp(endtime)
                          - unix_timestamp(starttime))/3600) ) AS totlen
FROM recorded

And you might even be able to push the rest of the calculation down as
well, so that you get back the bitrate itself.
