[QUOTE="abc, post: 353062, member: 27718"] The problem is that I have 1GB of RAM on a Mac Pro, Xeon 2.0 GHz. I use 2 browsers (Safari and Firefox) and I keep 6-8 windows opened. Then I read my email with Thunderbird. I also have 3 terminal windows opened. On top of that I use on and off Fetch, TextEdit. With all these apps running I have 40 MB of RAM free (green) and I don't think it is normal. For instance Safari now is eating up 200 MB of RAM and 1.9 GB of virtual memory and I use 8 windows. To me the swap file is too large. What do you think? [/QUOTE]
