check all the service u run. I just use 128Mb, never got like what u got.
I monitor my memory used by gkrellm and open bluefish, opera, netscape, xmms,

I think my KDE has a memory leak, although I've not been able to find any
info on the possibility at kde.org. When I first turn on the computer, KDE is
using about 80MB, just now it was using 250MB (ouch!). I got those two

this has been gone into for ever..but what you are veiwing _Might_ have to do

yes.. but when that process terminates... the memory should be returned to
the system, right? in which case... the OS never lost track of it.
