Here are my actual stats, well under 200 MB.
CDE 2.2.3 on Slackware 14.1 x86_64
IBM desktop with Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.00GHz, 4 GB RAM
After a clean boot:
* dtlogin started, CDE login screen shown on X display
* no users logged into desktop yet
* RSS total: 38676
$ ps -efly | egrep 'RSS|dt' |
Alright, I guess I’ll throw out some (semi) hard numbers. Last I checked, CDE
2.2.3 ran absolutely great on my 166mhz pentium with 128MB of RAM. RSS on dtwin
was… less than 20MB.
Maybe 4, or 16, but definitely not 200. If that’s what you’re seeing from CDE
itself, then something has gone terribl
