Well I was running top.  I have run prstat but gives similar information.  Big cpu hitters is mozilla at .8%, citrix x server at .3% and gnome terminal at .2%  (I think the gnome terminal shoots up when I run prstat or top so that not a real indicator.)  My machine is sun fire 280r with dual ultra sparc III 750's 1 gig ram.  Will prolly expand that to 2 but I am concerned about the heavy ram utilization currently, such as the 10M gnome-terminal... 

 

Just for experimentation sake I undid all my /etc/system shared memory, semephore, msgsys tweaks and it is a little better.  It takes a performance hit by turning those off but I needed to try.

 

I have a default profile with stull like nautilus and screensavers disabled that gets activated when I add users.

Just out of curiosity, I've noticed apps like gnome-terminal are taking 10M
to run on my gnome system (solaris8 sparc).  I was just wondering have
people been experimenting with compile options to optimize more??  I've been
seeing memory usages over 80M per user, not including stuff like mozilla...

Tony,

I've temporarily given up on gnome on sparc solaris8 specifically due to the dismal performance of
Sun's Forte For Java under gnome. Have you done a prstat -scpu to identify your hot spots?

Henry
