I see the same behavior with 96 MB RAM. Paging heavily on a 96 MB system makes no sense for searches on a tiny web page, so I don't think more RAM is the answer. Unfortunately, I don't have a solution. I don't think IDE vs. SCSI is a solution. I have an all-SCSI system, and in any case I don't think it's relevant. -- Matthew Hunt * Inertia is a property of matter. http://www.pobox.com/~mph/pgp.key for PGP public key 0x67203349.
