Actually I think both numbers are incorrect =96 or is top able to count =20= exactly the used functions from some open and shared library? GNU =20 Emacs 22.0.91's private memory use is around 24 MB, 48 MB is virtual =20 memory, 8 MB are shared with other processes (shell?), and almost 30 =20 MB are physical RAM. Making any Emacs use GTK makes it a memory hog: =BC GB seems possible = ... I already receive enough spam =96 nevertheless, Eli, could you make =20 your eMail client hide eMail addresses? -- Greetings Pete Time flies like an error -- but fruit flies like a banana!
