Hello everyone!

I have just noticed that ethereal eats a lot of memory.
Currently it has no capture running and no file loaded.
Previous analyzied file was about 56Mbytes. But it was
closed. Is this behavior normal?


Mem: 111M Active, 15M Inact, 46M Wired, 6820K Cache, 28M Buf, 564K Free
Swap: 384M Total, 331M Used, 53M Free, 86% Inuse

  PID USERNAME PRI NICE   SIZE    RES STATE    TIME   WCPU    CPU COMMAND
 6201 lxxx     96    0   298M 92316K select   3:07  0.00%  0.00% ethereal


Cheers,
       Alex.
