I recently added a new 256M sdram module to my computer and started noticing some weird behavior. For one the kernel is only able to detect 628M of the total 640M. I know I can fix that with a simple append, but I noticed some really wierd memory usage. When I just simply open up gnome, nautilus seems to be using up over 130M as a normal point of operation. Then when I start up evolution it seems to start being the memory hog and it seems that nautilus simply gives up the memory it was using. I have seen memory usage of over 400M by evolution. I like my shinny new RAM and all, but I dont understand all this extra memory usage by programs that used to run fine with no swapping back when I had only 384M. Any explanations?
