One way to find out is to open the GNOME System Monitor gnome-system-monitor and sort the process listing by memory. In my case the main memory users are * Evolution (144MB, 35MB shared) * Evolution Data Server (99MB, 13MB shared) * Rhythmbox (92MB, 21MB shared) * Nautilus (79MB, 35MB shared) * Evolution Alarm Notify (69MB, 22MB shared) * Straw (41MB, 24MB shared) -- Michael JasonSmith http://www.ldots.org/
