You may have seen my posts about "how to add swapfile?" because my swap kept getting eaten and never flushed. Last night I did a test and started X and everything looked fine until I ran Netscape and browsed around. When I finished my Xserver was 14M. (in about 45minutes) BTW, It stayed at 14MB when I exited Netscape. --- Rob Snow rsnow@txdirect.net
