It's not the problem here. always between 200 and 400 MB free. BTW, the system is not swapping when this happens. The scrolling is very smooth and relatively fast (about 100 lines/s) which is enough to understand that X eats all the CPU scrolling one line at a time. I have yet to understand why 'ls|cat' behaves differently, but fortunately it works and it has already saved me some useful time.
Cheers, Willy
