i have been noticing lately that once i run my system for about a week my memory has about 14/384 MB RAM free and will not release any of it unless i close every application i'm running, but it still doesn't release it all because it's not all being used. Is there some way that i can tell the kernel to release any of the memory that it's not using so that my programs which run insanely fast when i first start my machine can still run at that speed? (i'm tempted to get rid of blackbox and every app i use with it, but then i will only use about 30MB of the memory) Arren Mund -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
