Nope, I fully expect xrestop to crash when the X server disappears. The thing would be to look for any growth in memory usage *while* sylpheed is beginning to become sluggish. > Neither xrestop nor sylpheed-gtk1 reports its pid to it, and > I get at least 6 <unknown>'s showing up. > xrestop - Display: 192.168.1.33:0.0 > Monitoring 23 clients.

Running remotely, it's quick 'n snappy. Well, if xrestop doesn't show any unusual memory usage, how about just 'top'? Anyway, 140KB is definitely not going to be a reason for the X server to crash, so let's reassign this to the xserver now. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
