well, i tested around for a while now and have to say that it really seems to be gaim.
the less i chat with gaim, the later the problems occur. i tried to concentrate my
activities to irssi the last few days and used gaim for only few hours. sometimes
while sleeping (so no great activity on gaim)... and its okay, i didnt have to restart
X again. the memory usage is about 22%, sometimes more, sometimes less.
but why is this all related to X's memory usage? shouldnt a program use its own
"memory area"? or is this related to the framework it uses (gtk2), since the framework
must use X directly instead of starting a viewable process?
