Mine idles most of the time, no CPU is used. My computer is running for ~6h now, dbus-daemon used less than 1.5s CPU time. > And > this morning, it was using about 750M of memory.

There are still ~512MB free with ~1,3GB cached currently. I do have programs running :) firefox with some tabs, kdevelop with a project (~100.000 LOC), kmail, LibreOffice and 3 konsoles, each with some tabs open. I know, I am of no help at all, but I really wonder, why your numbers differ so significantly from mine. > Wonko Michael
