When pianobar is running as it should:  (I'm inserting a screen shot---I 
hope it works).

and when pianobar falls into a stutter top looks like this.  The big change 
seems to be with CPU usage rather than memory:

 

> How much free memory do you have?

Doesn't seem to be a problem, but see the top screen shots
 

> Have you created a swap file? 
>

Doesn't seem to have been activated.
