The NetSurf (Linux like) memory nanagement doesn't transfer to RISC
OS memory management (what there is) very well. RISC OS currently
limits dynamic areas, and although NetSurf can use more than one, it
seems as if there is a main DA that once it reaches the limit it
effectively kills NetSurf. This happens very regularly,
unfortunately, if you are looking at graphic intensive sites, which
are becoming more and more the norm.
