Hi, Linux newbie here.
I have been using Fedora6 x86_64 for 2 months now and am very happy with
this package.
I have just noticed that my memory usage does not diminish as I think I
free up memory by closing applications, etc. I was using Windows before
migrating into Linux, but on Windows memory was freed up by closing
applications and by removing inputs from memory cells. How can I free up
memory on Linux?
Also, I tried Suse 10.2 before using Fedora6. For some reason, response
time was better on Suse. It looks like opening Mozilla and Openoffice
applications takes a while..... Does anyone notice this difference in
response time?
My system configuration is
CPU: Athlon X2 5200 AM2 (not overclocked)
RAM: Wintec DDR2 800 4GB
GPU: Nvidia Geforce 6150 Onboard
Any suggestions for memory management or is this something I don't have
to worry about?
Thank you very much.
Taka
