Hello
I have xfree86 with gnome running on Ultrasparc 2 (4X300MHZ smp)
platform. The system appears to be leaking memory.
here's top:
top - 17:45:38 up 7:28, 4 users, load average: 0.39, 0.20, 0.20
Tasks: 99 total, 2 running, 97 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie
Cpu(s): 2.0% us, 0.3% sy, 0.0% ni, 97.7% id, 0.0% wa, 0.0% hi,
0.0% si
Mem: 1034120k total, 1025920k used, 8200k free, 101160k buffers
Swap: 543728k total, 0k used, 543728k free, 756184k cached

... (rest of the processes take minimal amount of memory)
gnome system monitor also states that 99,2% of memory is used.
Could someone tell me how to backtrace the leak (or is this normal)?
Timo
ps. sorry, i'm kinda newbie with this system
