I don't know if this is a general problem with Tk's tear-offs, or what. Looking forward to trying the 3.1.2 server with this. > Assuming that there isn't any instability introduced, gnumalloc is > indeed a win for memory consumption! Tell me about it: 4904 taob 37 0 5940K 2076K run 0:34 4.06% 4.04% netscape 165 root 2 0 6444K 5256K run 336:45 5.07% 5.07% XF86_Mach64 5231 taob 2 0 2892K 2292K sleep 0:03 0.61% 0.61% xv My X server is normally up to around 12 to 15 megs after a few hours of normal usage. xv, after loading in several large TIFF's and RGB files, is typically sitting up in the 5- to 6- megabyte range. Netscape is, of course, its usual bloated self. ;-) Other than the Tk tear-off menu problem, it's been running flawlessly. -- Brian ("Though this be madness, yet there is method in't") Tao taob@gate.sinica.edu.tw <-- work ........ play --> taob@io.org
