yup, another thing to love about NutScrape.  I try to keep an eye on
memory usage, dont think I ever let it take that much.

Here's something to try:  startup x without much else running, then load
up netscape, note you memory usage and leave it on overnight.  See what
you have the next day (provided its still running).  Then wonder why 1
navigator window requires 30 mb - something I could never understand.

And I guess the fake wood I knocked on didn't work,  'cause it crashed
twice since.
