	Here's what mine looks like, 24 bit color, 1280x1024, Xaccel 2.1:

  PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE    RES STATE    TIME   WCPU    CPU COMMAND
  215 root      2   0 14796K 36824K select  59:58  6.26%  6.26% Xaccel

	I can get the memory usage up a little higher temporarily by
running OpenGL demos, Java programs under Netscape, etc.  (btw, the above
memory usage is with xearth, xsnow, and netscape running).  I guess the
memory usage is all part of running at high resolutaions/color depths.
