I have noticed over the last few weeks of test builds that whenever I look at the task manager, even soon after starting up, NetSurf has already filled up its DA with 128MB, which didn't previously happen until you browsed a lot of sites with images. Its not a big problem for me as I don't use all of the Iyonix's 512M memory very often, but on a Risc PC this will potentially eat everything. Plus I don't think NetSurf's memory settings are having any affect on limiting the DA. I'll see if I can find out more about this to add to the bug report.
