i finnally found one of those mysterious memory leaks, i guess.

i'm running xorg x11 + xfs + opera 7.50_beta1. so far so good, about most things work as expected.

BUT! when i resized my font in opera by pressing "+" my system nearly came to a complete halt:

Code:
 
PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND           
 9711 root      40   0 15924  11m 4476 S 70.9  1.5   0:46.51 xfs               
26285 root      25   0  411m 252m 234m R 21.3 33.4   4:59.87 X                 
26304 nt        22   0 79688 8400  18m R  2.3  1.1   2:13.78 xmms             
28713 nt        23   0  164m  38m 136m R  2.0  5.1   1:03.71 opera             
 8473 nt        22   0 79688 8400  18m S  1.0  1.1   0:01.45 xmms             
26303 nt        21   0 17980 6108  15m S  0.7  0.8   0:33.02 gkrellm2

Code:

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND           
26285 root      22   0 1120m 619m 541m S  3.0 81.8   4:53.31 X                 
26353 nt        22   0 20260 8912  14m S  1.7  1.1   0:23.21 xchat-2   

this is most disturbing. i'll try another version of opera (7.23) and thus check out if it's an opera 7.50_beta1 related problem. if this is the case, i'll make a bug report at the opera homepage. anyone has similar findings?

update: it is not opera it seems. has there been an update to a font related lib recently?

i finnally tried and figured, that it is a kernel problem. i've compiled and tried linux-2.6.6-rc3-love3 today. don't know exactly what causes the problem, but it's there :).

You think it is a kernel problem.
I think it is The Fontom of the Opera.
