Thanks to pointers in this thread I managed to get rhythmbox running.I'm running rhythmbox, and accorting to "top", it only uses 0.7% and less when running minimized to the notification area, where is uses less than 0.5 %.
It uses 25% CPU on my Epia-M10000...
It is huge - both onscreen and in RAM. It takes about 3x the screen real estate that iTunes (which is too big) takes in reduced mode.
Why would you want to replace xmms with a program like that? Did I say that it crashes?
When it gets slim and fast then it might have a chance but for the moment this is alpha quality software.

On my system it uses 33% of memory after a day of use: top - 11:05:46 up 22:15, 15 users, load average: 0.27, 0.27, 0.13 Tasks: 95 total, 1 running, 94 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 10.3% us, 1.3% sy, 0.0% ni, 88.1% id, 0.3% wa, 0.0% hi, 0.0% si Mem: 516724k total, 506092k used, 10632k free, 18140k buffers Swap: 1052216k total, 61544k used, 990672k free, 100404k cached
