After the update, was it perhaps building locate or man page indexes? Or
maybe some other background activity?

Actually it looks like the numbers are a bit lower than they were when I
first installed, but still higher than I would think and idling machine
should be at. I am running 3.2.0-24 kernel. When I first installed this
version the load average was between .7 and .8, I have run Myth back to
.22 I think? I don't remember them ever being that high just at idle.
Today they are in the .3s. When I took this my box had only been up 3.5
hours, it turns itself on right before I get home and shuts itself off
late on work nights, so I generally don't have it up for more than 3
days at a time over a weekend.
From /proc/cpuinfo:
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
cpu family : 15
model : 35
model name : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4400+
stepping : 2

I don't know if my top screenshot came through on my last email, but
I am attaching it again if not. It appears that Mythfrontend is
using the majority of the cpu. I haven't actually tried killing
that process yet to see if the load comes down to something I would
expect. I would definitely be interested in your numbers. And like
you I have dual HD ATSC tuners on my backend/frontend combo. I have
noticed the load up to and above 2.00 since the upgrade on that
machine during recording/watching TV. The machine seems to
definitely be keeping up but I am obviously nearing my threshold on
my dual core proc. Seems like such unnecessary high utilization
when I was seeing things so low before the upgrades.

I did the upgrade about two weeks ago and noticed the same
thing. I did a clean install of Mythbuntu 12.04, my load average
was pretty low, 0.10s or something (in previous versions) when
it was doing nothing and now it sits around 0.8 to 1.0 when
doing nothing. I have dual hdtv inputs and it still seems to be
able to keep up recording on both and playing back a recording
while running mythcomflag, so I haven't really concerned myself
with it. Also my cpu fan does not turn on to higher speeds even
though typically it would, so I presumed the load number is just
wrong, and not that the load is really that high. If I look at
top or iotop they are sitting pretty idle as well.
I also have an AMD CPU, I forget which exact one but I can send
my system info once I get home if it helps. I presume this to be
an ubuntu problem though.

I have noticed that after I updated from Mythbuntu 11.10 and
MythTV 0.24 to 12.04/0.25 that my load averages are much
higher. I am running AMD Athlon X2 260 processor. Before the
upgrade, with Mythfrontend idle, I would see a load average
of no more than 0.05. Now I am seeing the below average when
idle with much higher loads when actually watching
something. I am curious if you guys have noticed anything
similar?
