On Debian it Seems to be these python-webkit and python-gnome2 or possibly instead (depending on the parts actually needed) python-webkit-dev and python-gnome2 (libwebkit is pulled in automatically by python-webkit*) >An informal test showed that Browse in sugar-emulator used 100MB in >opening and navigating to gmail, while surf used 85MB.

Please document how to measure the memory use (even if non-academic), to make it possible to compare on other environments using exact same measuring method (as I suspect it may vary a lot, depending on compile options of e.g. xulrunner). - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkmuaRgACgkQn7DbMsAkQLjlwACcD3/XDSEWoymkVsYf9POK92Qv ZsYAoJRKmnvmlCZ7HDFmDx+rdcCq6RO5 =own2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
