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. >Fix: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
