I thought about that, however, I used limits to launch both netscape and
the X server with a 512M memory limit, and it didn't change the behavior.
Note my system's memory is 96M + ~100M swap, so 512M should be more than
enough.  csh reported the limit as 64M by default under 2.2.5.  I don't
seem to be able to find this value using limits under 2.2.2.  Is this
what changed in 2.2.5?  If so, it seems that maybe limits doesn't really
work, and I get stuck with 64M no matter what.  If not, there must be
something else that is affecting the process memory resource limit in
2.2.5 that didn't in 2.2.2.  --Alan, alanchar@got.net
