`top' shows that more than 80% of memory is engaged by XML2PMX, and about 10%
of CPU.

$ free -m
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:            926          87         665          19         173         685
Swap:          1004          45         958

The command 'less /proc/cpuinfo' shows:

cpu MHz         : 964.766
cache size      : 512 KB

Do you think it's normal?

Thanks,
