Our Boss says so.
Honestly, the fields that I watched did not say virt or ecc. I was watching the total memory display at the top of "top": Mem: 385672k total, 379892k used, 5780k free, 6472k buffers Swap: 687952k total, 109924k used, 578028k free, 88360k cached I wasn't watching the normal virt or ecc values because freenet spawns tens of processes and I know that memory is counted weird there. So I just looked at total memory use, at the top of the display, and watched it drop as I killed freenet. It may be a virtual machine problem, so I'll install another one later. I'm currently using blackdown-jdk 1.4.1 _______________________________________________ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
