Nice effort, hmm... i'm not sure which program it is, but rather than suspecting netscape this time, i'd point my fingers to afterstep... i use xf86 3.3.1 and s3, afterstep 1.0 and netscape 4b8, and when i use xv, after a while, by restarting the afterstep i'm getting mucho swap freed... the only time i ran out of swap happened when i forgot to restart, and had some 3 xv's running simultaneously... ofcourse, netscape tells me often, also in another machine where i use s3v, that it's out of mem, i need to free up some (like it'd be on windows machine), but all it's using is about 24 megs, and i have like all the swap available, and some ram too... mickey
