System name:		technomage
Type and version:	SPARC/4 8.0J (2 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		cgthree

What's wrong:
	X is too big:

	Memory: 26180K real, 508K free, 21480K swap, 54268K free swap

	  PID USERNAME PRI NICE   SIZE    RES STATE  TIME   WCPU    CPU COMMAND
	28909 root      34    0 24328K 17484K sleep  0:04  0.89%  0.89% Xsun

	It's not a memory leak: it starts up that size.

What should have happened:
	X should not be taking up more than half of my RAM.

	An unscientific survey shows this happening on sparc4s, but
	not sparc5s or classics.
