Oops. Forgot to add in my the number of Bash Shells and other running console applications here. However, Xorg using 20-30MB is still seems like a huge amount -- but isn't some of this off loaded to video ram? Anyways, the man reason for posting was just to note the memory resource difference between DWM and XFCE4. I still prefer DWM over XFCE4 as I can easily manage it using keyboard. -- Roger http://rogerx.freeshell.org/
