This machine is a Pentium 100 running 3.0-current and Xinside's v2.1 X
server, and has a Millenium 4MB and 32MB main memory.

Top shows Xaccel is now at 7.92M SIZE (7156K RES) swapinfo shows
38% of 131072M swap.

This is running the CDE with vic, vat, wb and sdr plus a few 'dtterms'

What would be reasonable to expect?
