Have you properly configured your user? What I usually do is: 1) be sure my user has the "staff" class: # grep dcoppa /etc/master.passwd dcoppa:***:1000:1000:staff:0:0:David Coppa:/home/dcoppa:/bin/ksh 2) I have this at the top of my ~/.profile: ---8<--- # bump limits ulimit -S -d $(ulimit -H -d) ulimit -S -n $(ulimit -H -n) ulimit -S -p $(ulimit -H -p) ulimit -S -s $(ulimit -H -s) ---8<--- With chromium or iridium it's not as bad as you have described. Personally I use iridium on a daily basis. Ciao! David
