Hi,

Yesterday I did a fresh b133 install on an x64 server with 1GB of RAM.
Installation went fine and then after reboot from a hard disk I logged
in (GUI), started gnome terminal and wanted to install one single
package by 'pkg install package'. Pkg allocated more than 400MB of
memory which with all the other default services started caused the
server to swap out some pages. It wasn't a heavy swapping but still 1GB
for a single gnome session with one terminal and a single command to
install one package should be good enough.

The memory usage issues are known; some have been resolved, and others are in the process of being evaluated or resolved. It is hoped significant progress in this area can be achieved in the near future.

Cheers,
