If one finds a reason of .5 meg eating, it may require just a few hours to fix it. But, to find that reason, I expect one has to spend many hours. At least, I've already spent many hours, and have no idea how many more hours to take to find one big reason (or to decide there's not such thing). --- Kenichi Handa handa@ni.aist.go.jp
