Re: [Evolution] Memory Usage



I think this is in the FAQ. This is a Linux bug. ps and top display each
thread of the program as a separate process. So what you're seeing there
is really 6 threads *sharing* 19M, not 6 processes each using 19M.

Here's a snapshot from top.  Is it just me, or is this a HUGE amount of

hit to RAM?  Why six processes?  Oh, don't get me wrong, I LOVE THIS
PROGRAM.  (User column removed for obvious reasons).
