I think it counts the number of times a program is started, and if that's true then programs that crash often or have to be restarted often because of serious memory leaks get an advantage... ;-) Another problem with this way of counting is that some programs prefer using multiple documents in the same proces, while other similar programs prefer starting a new proces for every document. The last category will possibly get higher in the statistics... -- Jan Claeys -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
