[QUOTE="skolar, post: 147736"] I've been trying to find an answer for this for a very long time, but i have yet to find it. In activity monitor i see a process constantly running and using a decent amount of real memory (its always the first or second process sorted by highest memory usage). What is it running? I have not been able to find any useful info by probing the process. I also havent gotten any useful info from apple support. Can one of you geniuses help me out? I'm really curious to know what this process is doing and if i can free up that memory. Thanks in advance! BTW: I'm running a powerbook G4 1Ghz with 768 MB of RAM with OS X 10.3 Panther. [/QUOTE]
