xmms is not a memory hog, i have it running here at this very moment, here
is what "top" says about it.
PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT LIB %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND
11 0 916 184 100 R 0 6.9 0.2 2:25 maudio
After 10 minutes of watching %MEM did get to 8.2.
I suggest you use top to find the "real memory" hog or configure xmms
properly.
