memory usage by some apps - is this normal ?

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}.
