[kwin needs up to 1.4G]

This still happens with 4.7.3 on Gentoo Linux.
I came across this:

      kwin --replace&

It tells kwin to replace itself with itself. Works for me, the screen
refreshes and panels reload and a couple apps were un-minimized but memory
dropped instantly and it's a lot easier than logging out and in.
Wow, that's great! I just hate to log out and restart all my stuff that
was running. Thanks!

When I did this, it went all wonky.  I went from 8 desktops to one and
all my apps went to the one desktop.  Other than all that, it worked
fine.  LOL

Now to logout and back in again to fix all this.  :/
Wow, that's bad! I just hate to fix things like this. That's why I back
up my .kde directory so often.

I will try this in a couple of days when I am back at my desktop.

If you try this, just try it at a point where you won't lose anything. That said, everything worked but it was just a single desktop, like winders has. Ewwwww!! After I logged back in, it went back to normal. Well, one of the settings changed on my taskbar but I fixed it. Just wanted to give a heads up that this may not work for everyone. By the way, I'm on Gentoo with KDE 4.7.3.
