This may take significant upstream work, but so be it. It's not GNOME, per se, but it uses gtk as the widget set for the menus and (IIRC) pango as the text renderer, as opposed to the obsolete Xaw widgets & core fonts. Now, what I wonder is: GUI: notting 8220 22.5 0.9 39952 14228 pts/5 S 16:39 0:00 emacs GUI with -nw: notting 8089 0.1 0.4 36112 7244 pts/4 S+ 16:35 0:00 emacs -nw -nox: notting 8042 0.1 0.3 9644 5816 pts/2 S+ 16:35 0:00 emacs-nox Some of the additional memory usage is shared, of course, but it's a neat trick that the supposedly equivalent -nw version uses four times the memory. Of course, the binary is also 4x the size, so that may make sense. FWIW, I'm of the opinion that no one should be using alternatives unless they absolutely have to, so I'd prefer the wrapper approach.
