On my machine it takes up a negligible amount of CPU, I think the
standalone took up a couple of % on my desktop (Duron 800), I didn't
measure it on the vdr box (Duron 1300). Memory consumption is probably a
couple of MB.

It is still required at the moment - as I said it's just a thin wrapper, I
plan to rewrite the non-library code in C++ and pull the stream in
directly from the core (as well as schedule/channel info).
