I don't understand. Are you saying that if you run top it shows only 10-15 MB of RAM in use by Freenet? Looking at three different systems I see Redhat 8.0 Freenet build 5065 90 MB Redhat 7.1.2 Freenet build 5068 127 MB Linux ?? Freenet build 5065 78 MB On the third system dmesg doesn't return anything; it's probably Redhat 8.0. These are the SIZE figures; RSS is a couple of MB smaller and SHARE runs around 8 MB. Suggest how I might get better definition and I will run it tomorrow. -- Jim Dixon [EMAIL PROTECTED] tel +44 117 982 0786 mobile +44 797 373 7881 "Be liberal in what you accept, Jon Postel and conservative in what you send."
