Could we perhaps move from suspicion and guesses to some quantitative analysis? Like, for example, what is the memory footprint of Emacs on your machine when it starts paging? I used to run Emacs on a 16-MB machine (no longer have that now), and I don't recollect anything similar to the disaster you describe. _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
