Just thought I would sent this out as a conversation piece. I'am running Linux-Netscape-Navigator 4.76 from ports, on 4-STABLE and after reading this article at LinuxWorld: http://www.linuxworld.com/linuxworld/lw-2000-11/lw-11-netscape6.html I thought I would have a look at Navigator's memory usage. Here's a ps output: Script started on Fri Dec 1 01:52:28 2000 bash-2.04$ ps -aux | grep p 762 ddavid 762 0.0 32.7 131040 127596 ?? S 9:37PM 3:45.66 /usr/local/lib/netscape First I'm actually surprised it's been running this long, almost 4hr's with out crashing on me, but when i had a look at the memory usage, like a 128M!!! I'm totally blown away by the amount of memory Netscape is sucking away for itself. Has anyone else ever seen such a thing while using Netscape? I for one do not ever recall such an outrages use of memory from any program I have run. Anyways, like I said this just blew me away, and I thought I would share my amazement with you all.
