One of the features I use there is a terminal running the top-programm. Over the time this uses more and more memory. To reproduce: shell> emacs -q # in emacs: M-x term /bin/bash RET # at shell prompt in emacs: top RET # in top programm (just to make it faster) s 1 RET I think that term.el is version 4.0 (from the line ;;; V4.0 January 1997 in the Changes section) Hope this helps.
