Hmm, I saw a big memory leak with Sawfish a while back that also showed up under X. I ditched Sawfish and went back to IceWm and the problem went away. I don't think this is a "gtk" bug, but rather some other general programming errors, but the memory happens to show up as allocated by X. -- Eric G. Miller <egm2@jps.net>
