Description BRULE Herman 2009-12-23 14:20:42 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.4)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

Hello,
Can you optimize the memory usage, I can do dump of my memory if you need, I can see this application which consume heavy memory usage:
kopete: 43MB, 30MB shared mem
ktorrent: 39MB, 39MB shared mem
akregator: 27MB, 20MB shared mem
kwin: 26MB, 36MB shared mem
kmail: 17MB 29MB shared mem
kget: 11MB, 14MB shared mem
It's particular heavy because this application is all the time at idle: kget
This application is ilde when not poll the server: kmail, akregator

Each application deny use on computer with few memory (like 64MB).

Please read http://ktown.kde.org/~seli/memory/analysis.html
BTW; KDE4 is not supposed to work with 64Mb
Thanks

Forget the 64MB, this wish is optimize the memory consumption, for not use 300MB of memory on my laptop.
