The numbers reported by these simple tools like ps or top can be a bit

Yea, Seamonkey, or Mozilla, does about the same thing. Maybe it is
counting cache or something but you are not alone on this type of report.

If you close Konqueror and restart it, it should go back to a reasonable
amount. That is why I think it is cacheing sites, images usually. I
like this since I am on a very slow dial-up.

I can understand that but that sometimes really pisses me off. :-\

Indeed, I have to restart it sometimes reminds me of using windows,
which sucks. Still KDE is the best! :-)

I didn't mean restart the computer, just restart the app. Keep in mind
that Linux uses memory a lot differently than windoze. It is very
efficient. I can truthfully say this since I have had uptimes as long
as 10 months, the longer Linux runs, the faster it gets, especially
after a few days of normal use. Using cache is really a good thing. I
have 1GB of ram here and it doesn't take long to fill that up with disk
cache. It makes a huge difference on start times for big apps like
, Gimp etc etc. That is really a good thing.

It's working as it should I am fairly sure of that. I wouldn't be to
concerned unless something takes up all your memory.
