But with IceWM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (24/24h) runs only marginally slower than under W2K. Granted, I cannot compare the differences in coding the Unix and Windows versions of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Still, swap is never used a lot. Perhaps with OpenOffice.org, but I didn`t have time to run the new version from the CD`s. My fs is ext3. And it made a lot of difference when I disabled swsusp: I could feel it slowing me down at nice 0, less so when I reniced it to 19. Now it`s noapic apic-ht period for me. Hibernation undesirable :-) Regards, =Dick Gevers= -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Encryption is an envelope - the contents are private. iD8DBQE/uoX9wC/zk+cxEdMRAvQDAJ9gmn33zTJwaj0G+CCwmc5lBDiINwCfdDAM ro8GXF+pC7oeL4sB0Ovd/oQ= =BDbD -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
