If you have too many things loaded up it is keeping part of it on disk so when you access things on disk continually it slows things down. But the actual VSIZE is irrelevant and does not tell you much about the problem except as a big picture thing. What I am trying to say is that the actual values and their size don't tell you that much as you have no idea how much if that is libraries, and how much user data. What I would like to see in Safari is the ability to tell Safari to suspend all non screen facing tabs (either as an across the board preference or on a per tab basis). In other words, if a tab is not selected in a window, I want to be able to have Safari suspend that page until it becomes selected. I bet that such a feature would "solve" the problems mentioned._______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list [email protected] http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
