I ran install tests on Fedora Core 1 and posted them here: http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2004-February/msg03789.html Summary: 64MB for graphical, 40 MB minimum. Personally, I'd install 128MB if possible because it really helps the performance. But if you disable little-used services 64MB is fine. > I wish linux had some performance monitoring tools like AIX.

Erm, you could always use vmstat if you want something like vmstat. $ vmstat procs memory swap io system cpu r b swpd free buff cache si so bi bo in cs us sy wa id 0 0 120352 5716 17220 284804 1 1 40 37 16 165 9 2 0 88 $ cat /proc/stat cpu 1656487 43298 446687 15765643 cpu0 1656487 43298 446687 15765643 page 7168660 6688845 swap 42651 49987 intr 45864962 17912115 282427 0 76 18 0 12 3517909 1 21775105 787514 0 6 0 1247975 341804 disk_io: (3,0):(11234,11234,1433742,0,0) (8,0):(26,26,208,0,0) (8,1):(28,28,224,0,0) (8,2):(6,6,48,0,0) (8,3):(6,6,48,0,0) (8,4):(6,6,48,0,0) ctxt 115608887 btime 1083629431 processes 48758 $ cat /proc/meminfo total: used: free: shared: buffers: cached: Mem: 792199168 784330752 7868416 0 17956864 351100928 Swap: 2146787328 123240448 2023546880 MemTotal: 773632 kB MemFree: 7684 kB MemShared: 0 kB Buffers: 17536 kB Cached: 281844 kB SwapCached: 61028 kB Active: 259500 kB Inactive: 465960 kB HighTotal: 0 kB HighFree: 0 kB LowTotal: 773632 kB LowFree: 7684 kB SwapTotal: 2096472 kB SwapFree: 1976120 kB -- David Norris http://www.webaugur.com/dave/ ICQ - 412039
