Hi all,
With updated fc6, I have left my PC on for the last few days, and
noticed it was really slow {I was doing a nice'd clamscan of the whole
disk}. The machine has 512MB ram, but just before I took this text
capture, I had firefox running virt=260MB {this had also caused java_vm
to be running virt=230MB} ie 512MB ram just for these two - does this
seem normal ?

Thanks for any pointers or comparison values. I notice that at least
clock-applet is no longer consuming tonnes of memory {another machine
after being up 60 days was using virt 800+MB just for clock applet}.
