>>my xterm shows 72788k is that insane?
I see:
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND
anton 2751 0.0 0.0 55936 3400 ? S 16:30 0:00 xterm ...
anton 2813 0.0 0.0 55952 3392 ? S 16:31 0:00 /usr/bin/xterm
anton 3084 0.0 0.0 55952 3300 ? S 16:46 0:00 /usr/bin/xterm
The physical memory consumption is approximated by the RSS (resident
set size) field, and is about 3.3MB, which is quite a lot for what it
does, but little relative to the memory available, so there is little
incentive to make it consume less. Also, 2.5MB of the virtual memory
size is shared, so in the best case, each additional xterm needs
800-900KB. Another way to estimate the memory consumption is:
free; xterm & sleep 1; free
I get the output (pretty repeatable):
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 4063524 326644 3736880 0 8928 126648
-/+ buffers/cache: 191068 3872456
Swap: 8016352 0 8016352
[1]+ Done xterm
[1] 3363
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 4063524 344536 3718988 0 8928 126648
-/+ buffers/cache: 208960 3854564
Swap: 8016352 0 8016352
According to this the new xterm consumes more than 17MB. Hmm.

Sometimes you have to make a decision between two objectives, but
sometimes the current solution can be improved for both objectives at
once, either because the people who produced the solution were not
particularly interested in the objectives, or because they were not
very competent.
