After some initial testing, I think it did the trick! Amazing, thanks a lot!
The default swappiness setting (60) seems to be a horr

Nice to hear that I'm not the only one with this "ancient" configuration. For
me 4.4.3 made things much worse, and no Eclipse included.
Not sure if only the new pre

Thanks, but I already know that it is Eclipse, and htop doesn't show
anything new except a few dozen threads in that process.
Still,

Hi,
this may not strictly be about (just) KDE, but I'm experiencing really
excessive swapping activity on my laptop since a little while back. The most
recent major change is the upgrade to KDE 4.4.3. I had all the previous KDE

As has been mentioned before, the trade-off between memory usage, speed,
and fuctionality is left to the individual. KDE3.1 gives an enormous amount
of functionality, hence it uses quite a bit more memory and can be slower
on systems that are limited by this.
Gnome is in a similar situation. The

I think there is an @kde.org mailing list for performance enhancements.
It is aimed at developers, though. Are you offering to help fix this?

Looking for a good forum for discussing memory usage..
Aside from the fact that konqueror seems to swallow an incredible mount of
memory, and not release it, it seems that it is taking more and more memory,
just to fire up the base functionality.
A fresh boot of debian stable, to KDE 3.1, with
> What's going on? Is it supposed to be like this?
The short answer is yes. In normal usage Linux will allocate all but 2MB
or so of available RAM to buffers. As your memory usage increases the
amount dedicated to buffers decreases so you always have around 2MB
free.
