Nothing really useful: (top) 769 root 104 0 441M 416M RUN 576:24 20.31% 20.31% XFree86 (xrestop) xrestop - Display: localhost:0 Monitoring 36 clients. XErrors: 0 Pixmaps: 30123K total, Other: 1003K total, All: 31127K total Glancing through the list of clients, I don't see any that look obviously wrong. All of them correspond to currently running processes. There is only 1 unknown but it doesn't seem to be taking up much memory: res-base Wins GCs Fnts Pxms Misc Pxm mem Other Total PID Identifier 4200000 6 39 1 6 27 192K 2K 194K ? So if it's a client resource leak, it's not one that xrestop can detect... Also, usage as reported by xrestop has gone down by 25M since my post yesterday (I have a lot less running now), but the XFree86 process is still at 416 resident -- only a 4M drop. It could just be XFree86 being overly aggressive with its pixmap cache, but I don't know how to check that and/or tune it to more reasonable values. Craig
