I just switched from AIX to AOS on my RT and am now experiencing memory
shortages.  It is partiularly bothersome when I'm running XR4, and want to
open another window or two (like another xterm, or start up xmh).
This happens when I'm only running 2 or 3 xterms, twm, and oclock.  It's not
like I have 20 windows open already.  Doing a "ps -augx" shows no processes
hogging memory in the "MEM%" column.

This never happened before when I was running AIX 2.2.1  Is the server so
much bigger under AOS or do I just have things configured wrong?

Any advice appreciated.
