I'm using 4.5G right now according to free -m (using the -/+ buffers/cache |
| 13 |
entry). 550M for a Windows VM, 355M for Kontact, 350M for my TV-Browser |
| 14 |
application, 200M for Firefox, incredible 165M for a Chromium instance, 155M |
| 15 |
plasma-desktop. Oh, there's an emerge -a command waiting for me to confirm |
| 16 |
it should run, 155M. virtuoso-t neds 150M, the same goes for Amarok, and |
| 17 |
kwin is at 140 now. The rest is mainly more Chromium and Konqueror |
| 18 |
processes, X, akonadi_nepomuk, apache2, kmymoney, the rest is less then 65M |
| 19 |
each. |

The system even starts swapping from time to time. 6G was not enough, things |
| 22 |
are much better now that I have 8G. With 4, it became unusable after 1-2 |
| 23 |
days of being logged into KDE. |
