Sorry about this long posting, but hopefully someone can suggest a solution.
Did you had to do anything to make Mozilla and Open Office use up less resources? Here Open Office takes 40 MB of Memory and Mozilla 20 per user. Is there anyways to make them share some of the memory across users? See my Top on a P4, 256 MB Memory and 5 users. 2:34pm up 1 day, 33 min, 18 users, load average: 1.50, 1.75, 1.55 267 processes: 263 sleeping, 4 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped CPU states: 53.7% user, 46.2% system, 0.0% nice, 0.0% idle Mem: 223372K av, 219888K used, 3484K free, 312K shrd, 2108K buff Swap: 514072K av, 160012K used, 354060K free 73392K cached PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND 15111 ballu 9 0 42652 41M 34824 R 2.5 19.0 0:13 soffice.bin 15149 ballu 9 0 42652 41M 34824 S 0.0 19.0 0:00 soffice.bin 15150 ballu 9 0 42652 41M 34824 S 0.0 19.0 0:00 soffice.bin 15151 ballu 9 0 42652 41M 34824 S 0.0 19.0 0:00 soffice.bin 15152 ballu 9 0 42652 41M 34824 S 0.0 19.0 0:00 soffice.bin 15177 ballu 9 0 42652 41M 34824 S 0.0 19.0 0:00 soffice.bin 2919 ballu 9 0 33040 25M 17140 S 0.1 11.7 1:13 mozilla-bin 2971 ballu 9 0 33040 25M 17140 S 0.0 11.7 0:00 mozilla-bin 2972 ballu 9 0 33040 25M 17140 S 0.0 11.7 0:00 mozilla-bin 2973 ballu 9 0 33040 25M 17140 S 0.0 11.7 0:00 mozilla-bin 2975 ballu 9 0 33040 25M 17140 S 0.0 11.7 0:00 mozilla-bin 14219 ballu 9 0 33040 25M 17140 S 0.0 11.7 0:00 mozilla-bin 13588 ganesh 9 0 21176 18M 10328 S 3.4 8.4 0:16 mozilla-bin 13640 ganesh 9 0 21176 18M 10328 S 0.0 8.4 0:00 mozilla-bin 13641 ganesh 9 0 21176 18M 10328 S 0.0 8.4 0:00 mozilla-bin 13642 ganesh 9 0 21176 18M 10328 S 0.0 8.4 0:00 mozilla-bin 13644 ganesh 9 0 21176 18M 10328 S 0.0 8.4 0:00 mozilla-bin 15479 ganesh 9 0 21176 18M 10328 S 0.0 8.4 0:00 mozilla-bin 15496 ganesh 9 0 21176 18M 10328 S 0.0 8.4 0:00 mozilla-bin 12704 rupali 9 0 20632 17M 12844 S 0.3 7.8 0:44 mozilla-bin 12758 rupali 9 0 20632 17M 12844 S 0.0 7.8 0:00 mozilla-bin 12759 rupali 9 0 20632 17M 12844 S 0.0 7.8 0:00 mozilla-bin 12760 rupali 9 0 20632 17M 12844 S 0.0 7.8 0:00 mozilla-bin 12762 rupali 9 0 20632 17M 12844 S 0.0 7.8 0:00 mozilla-bin 13047 rupali 9 0 20632 17M 12844 S 0.0 7.8 0:00 mozilla-bin 1019 root 9 0 53140 15M 6104 S 1.9 7.2 5:46 X 29666 anil 9 0 21280 9844 8004 R 0.3 4.4 2:56 mozilla-bin 29718 anil 9 0 21280 9844 8004 S 0.0 4.4 0:00 mozilla-bin 29719 anil 9 0 21280 9844 8004 S 0.0 4.4 0:00 mozilla-bin 29720 anil 9 0 21280 9844 8004 S 0.0 4.4 0:00 mozilla-bin 29722 anil 9 0 21280 9844 8004 S 0.0 4.4 0:02 mozilla-bin 29800 anil 9 0 21280 9844 8004 S 0.0 4.4 0:00 mozilla-bin 8669 anil 9 0 21280 9844 8004 S 0.0 4.4 0:00 mozilla-bin Wolfgang Schweer wrote: > > I am working at a school for adults in Dortmund, Germany > (about 800 students). > At the moment we have 4 rooms with about 50 LTSP stations. > These are not really diskless clients; they boot Win9x from HD and > LTSP via lilo, bpbatch-menu or floppy.
