I downloaded version 3.01 last night and started my PVR run this
morning, and left it to run. When I got back, my Mac had frozen, with
the Terminal process using 20G of RAM (not sure if it was just the
terminal or a combination of GIP and the terminal process) and the
kernel task using 11G (my machine has 16G, so there was a lot of
compressed memory and paging going on here.)
The get_iplayer process in the terminal was showing a continuous
looping error which I tried to interrupt, but the machine was so slow,
it was totally unresponsive. I had to remotely log in, kill the
offending GIP process and reboot the machine to free up the kernel
memory.
My machine is running Yosemite and is fully patched. I believe the
programme in question was 'Garden Rescue Episode 10 - Weston
Super-Mare' The last few lines of the errors being sent to the
terminal are below, recovered after the machine rebooted from the
terminal process.

Any ideas, and has anyone else seen anything similar?
