OK, I looked at the data a bit that has been changed. The database backup
the night of 12/20 was 1.2 GB. The database backup the night of 12/21 was
3.3 GB. So whatever happened had to have happened on 12/21.

Nevertheless, looking at ALL changes from 12/21 through the current
database, roughly a week's worth of changes -- all records that have been
added or modified in that table since 12/21, the entire amount data in all
of those records is about 1.5 MB -- about 1,000 times short of what it needs
to be.

So there's no way that data added or modified caused this change. For some
reason this table went from 1/2 GB to 2 GB overnight, with hardly any
changes to the data. This is just very strange.
