This sounds serious,
I think I'd call Red Hat. You may very well have a memory leak or
something. Also, perhaps you could make Netscape as client
resident. Netscape is statically linked meaning that each instance of it
uses a huge amount of RAM. StarOffice 5.2 also uses a lot more memory
than does StarOffice 6.0, because it doesn't share componants with the
OS--it duplicates everything. It does, however, share componants among
each of the StarOffice applications. That's why StarOffice takes a long
time to load and runs faster once it's been loaded and used a little.
I am eagerly anticipating the release of StarOffice 6.0. I presume it
will be very soon..
