My setups are almost identical. Accelerated X, tkdesk, afterstep, and netscape version 4. When I have all of the above running and look at, top my memory and cpu usage is about 20% lower with freebsd version 2.2.2 than with redhat 4.2. I was just curious if there is something about freebsd that would account for this difference ie the way it assigns or uses memory. I have 64 megs of ram and a cyrix 150 proccesor with a matrox mill video card with 4 megs of memory. Thanks Alot -- Rick Knebel rknebel@mail.csrlink.net
