When that's running, start FTM as usual: if you start it from the console, open a second window and run it there. When top is running, hit 'q' to exit, 'h' for online help or 'u' and type your user name to limit it to showing just your processes. If you are suffering from a memory leak there's a good chance that top will let you see which process is responsible: its memory allocation should grow steadily. Martin
