i was just looking through the system monitor to see how my memory

I've made a screenshot [1] of it and edited it a little. The color
that i added in mean:
- darkred : extreme memory usage for..?? nothing?
- red : gnome-panel related things (applets mostly)
- orange : first applet UNDER one MB.
Now if you take a look at the image you see that my current gnome
session is taking up:
4.9 MB (gnome-panel)
3.5 MB (mixer_applet2)
3.0 MB (wnck-applet)
2.3 MB (nm-applet)
1.2 MB (notification-area-applet)
1.1 MB (gnome-volume-manager)
0.7 MB (bluetooth-applet)
I was kind of worried about the default choice of applets for a
different reason -- they seem to slow Gnome startup very much. Did
anyone notice, that Fedora 8 Gnome startup takes roughly two times
longer than Fedora 6 one? On the other side I just took it as a fact of
life, and disabled things that I don't use like bluetooth or tomboy in
my kickstarts. All in all, the same thing applies for services.
