>Description:
Installation on 2 seperate machines, one w/ IDE the other using Adaptec
SCSI 2940 both have same problem. Run netscape on a game http://www.alamak.com.sg/game/
reading local images from disk so should not be cached but anyway swap
fills up and netwcape3.01 crashes. I'm not sure if it's incompatable
compile of netscape and freebsd release or a FreeBSD problem. Of course
I can't recompile netscape to test (no source).
>How-To-Repeat:
Install 2.2.1-RELEASE XF8632 Netscape and run it repeatedly on pages
with images, http://www.alamak.com/game/ should do the trick.
I think it will do the same thing even if using the remove images rather
than local files on disk.
