I'm using the gnome system monitor applet/application to watch what goes on in my ubuntu machine, and when I sort by memory size, the program itself takes up 1.3 gig, 870meg resident. It's a stupid little monitoring program. Is there any way to get it to waste less memory?
Free reports the same, I'm just thinking that the program itself is just a crazy hog for what it does. I've gotten to the point where I think swap is almost completely useless, I never use swap, everything's in memory all the time, which is why it concerns me that this silly tool it taking up an entire gig of memory. – Stu – 2011-08-19T17:56:06.633
