Running FreeBSD Snap 3.0
System is Pentium P5/200MHz, 64 Meg Ram, 512K Cache,
96 Meg Swap space.
X is up and running with the following X apps running:
tvtwm window manager
xbiff
xclock
icon manager
virtual desktop
Xsysinfo
vmstat
When I try to run netscape (version 4.3b8), I get a message
from netscape that I am out of memory. SO I looked at what
vmstat was saying:
procs memory page disks faults cpu

Holy smokes!! Where did all my free pages go????
Here is the message from bootup, which shows I have plenty of
free memory. So where did all the mem go??? Is the kernel losing
track of free'ed up memory? Also, look at output of ps -agxl below
so you can check resident set sizes.
