Hi, We are aware of this problem for years now. It does affect Firefox, but other major applications like OpenOffice.
I did post on Firefox, OpenOffice and LTSP mailing list : http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.dev.apps.firefox/browse_thread/thread/eaa9f5f1ea7c3835/707f615365abcd43?lnk=gst#707f615365abcd43 http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=dev&msgNo=17690 http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=45117DD3.5060909%40revolutionlinux.com The problem is not trivial and affects many applications. Someday, we will have to fix that, otherwise it's a major drawback to the reliability of thin-client based on X11. Is hard to find which project is responsible for this situation. I recall my notes about it : http://www.mille-xterm.org/en/TerminalMemoryUsage So, Firefox 3 may fix the problem? I'm open to redo my experiments with it to see if it does. We should look to OpenOffice also, and probably other applications as well I'm not aware of yet. Have a nice day, Francis Giraldeau -- Francis Giraldeau, Ing jr.
