I'm able to successfully export 30 minutes shows from HD to xvid on my system.  That takes about 5 hours.  Anything bigger than that doesn't work.  My system is swapping like crazy and the fps drops from 8 to < 1.  I've search the archive and googled a bit but can't find the answer. 
 
You can see that mythtranscode grew from 372m used to a 1303m in virtual memory.  I have a gig of RAM in that machine and killed X so maybe the extra RAM will be used and not swapped.  From what I can see, my hard drive swapped all night and I stopped my 1 encoding after 9 hours, which only 2% was done.
 
Anybody can help here? Memory leak in mythtranscode?
