Hi Xperts, 

This is posted for a friend of mine 
(dbaldwin@hiflyer.dazixco.ingr.com (Don Baldwin) so please reply via email to him.

He is running an application that uses X-Server memory (for images). He noticed
that each time he invokes the application and quit out of it, the X-Server is not
releasing the image memory, so after several time his swap memory is gone. He is 
running on an Intergraph Clipper. 
Do any of you Xperts know something about a bug in X-server that will cause it to
behave like that.

Thank you very much for your time.
