It is the third most memory hungry application right after the browser and a pdf viewer. I have found calc interned lots and lots of symbols (for example: abs\(1:\), Help\ on\ Stack, etc) into obarray. To see it: 1. Emacs -q 2. M-x calc 3. C-h v obarray I wonder is there's a bug or a fault in calc. Cheers, Leo
