Thanks, I'm going to look into rxvt. Right now, 'firefox-bin' (IW) processes have 38m RES (2 tabs open - http://gentoo-wiki.com/FAQ_Linux_Memory_Management and http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/1445 :) ), Sylpheed has 14m, Xorg has 11m, Xfce-terminal has 10m, about 8 - 10 entries have between 5 - 10m, followed by bash processes between 1.9 - 2m. free reports 70m used, and the system isn't swapping. Since it rarely does (192m total), I've never been too concerned about memory usage, but I suppose I'm geeky enough to believe in squeezing out all the efficiency I can, even though I'm not enough of a geek to have ever written firmware or put together a circuit board :) Celejar -- ssuds.sourceforge.net - Home of Ssuds and Ssudg, a Simple Sudoku Solver and Generator -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
