Well, rember what I said about not being able to run emacs and
gcc at the same time, after being logged on for 4 hours....
well, I left my workstation logged in last night, and when I came in today
(after it was sitting "idle" over night)...I not only can't run
BOTH emacs and gcc...I can't run EITHER emacs or gcc !!
yes, that's right, I don't have an emacs running...just 3 xterms and an xclock.
and no other applications.
When I try to run gcc, I get the following:
r> make
rm -f rulebrowser.o
/mit/gnu/vaxbin/gcc -Dathena_unix=1 -Dbsd_unix -Dunix -DMSGDEBUG=0 -I. -I/afs/at
hena/astaff/project/argus/src/working/ansi-include -I/afs/athena/astaff/project/
argus/src/working/include -I/afs/athena/astaff/project/argus/src/working/vaxsrc
-I/afs/athena/astaff/project/motifdev/include -DSYSTEM_LENS_PROFILE=\"/afs/athen
a/astaff/project/argus/lens.profile\" -c rulebrowser.c
rulebrowser.c: In function AlRsb_mkrulebox:
rulebrowser.c:126: Virtual memory exhausted.
*** Exit 1
Stop.
pretty scarey, huh??
Ya, I'm starting to think it is definately a swap space leakage bug
in 6.3B. The world just seems to get smaller and small the longer you are signed
on, regardless of whether I'm actively working, or just idly logged in.

PS: Jusat a reminder: I'm running 6.3B on a vaxstation II with mwm
as my window manager.
