I have several VDR boxes that all run 24/7 without being restarted for weeks/months at a time. Even then a restart was only necessary due to a system update such as kernel or drive update. All of these boxes use the EEPG plugin and none of them display any kind of memory problem. I strongly urge anyone who wants to try, or thinks there's a problem, to grab the latest git source and see if these problems actually (still) exist.
