    If your subscribing and reading this list at least have the courtesy to
    think about your posting before delivering it around the world. Not to
    be rude but do you know how dumb you look right now. There are many
    programs that while provide detailed memory usage reports. That would
    be a first step.


    By "cc" to the list...

    *WTF*!! For someone that's been lurking on the kernel lists on and off
    since the mid 90's this has been one of the most stupid discussions and
    largest timesink to date.. Is this really the LKML or the #linux
    channel on irc?
