It's not a cache. After each of these steps, check the resources available in the Resource Meter. Open AbiWord. Open an existing document in AbiWord (which creates a new window). Close that document. Open it, close it, open it, close it, ... After each open close cycle you will notice that fewer and fewer resources are available. Is AbiWord caching the same document multiple times? (If that is the case, it is just as good as a memory leak.) Randy Kramer
