My system has been up for a few weeks. I had not monitored this until now, but 
free gives this result:

             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:        255840     247608       8232          0      21908      96076
-/+ buffers/cache:     129624     126216
Swap:       136512      68724      67788

I assume if I upgrade from KDE3 to KDE3.1 this will only get worse. Am I in 
desperate need of memory, or is this a function of having been up for a 
while?

Regards,
David
