Define graphics intensive? 5 meg? 10 meg?

Very stange. Even if he thought it'd be fun to disable MSIE's disk cache and
put it all in memory it still shouldn't have done that.
 DB> Idiots who put photoCD images on their web pages should be

They'd make a good divider when they're done... 
 DB> Of course, having only a 540MB hard drive doesn't help either.
My swap has never been more than 50 meg, even with as many apps open as I
could manage to find on my HDD. The HDD I'm on now is 700meg (mode3, erk).
No problems.
