Loking at 'top', I notice that XFree 4.2 (or whatever the newest version is) 
appears to be using about 68MB of RAM. This is without a window manager, 
just the checkerboard background and the X cursor. Is this normal?

My system: AMD based PC, X having been compiled with some optimizations. 
Could that be it?
CFLAGS="-s -O2 -march=pentiumpro -malign-functions=4 
-fexpensive-optimizations -fschedule-insns2 -mwide-multiply 
-fomit-frame-pointer -pipe"
