Pavel: Interesting. With my 2.6Gig of effective memory I dropped back to 2.6.35-23, loaded firefox, gimp with 9 images between 10000x5000 and 5000x5000, celestia, stellarium, sciTE. Best I could get was 67% memory utilisation, and I couldn't get a freeze on copying data after many attempts (though poor old CPU was panting away at 100%).
