Description Joe Crollard 2006-02-19 03:08:49 UTC 
I installed suse 10.1 beta 4 today (coming from beta 3)..and noticed that on first boot it was very slow.  I then did a 'top'...and saw that htdig was taking about 60% of my memory.  Not exactly sure what that was..but I killed it and it went away.  

Then, I decided to check out yast.  Upon opening the new package manager, my system nearly came to a halt.  Total lag...and I could barely move the mouse pointer.  After finally opening a console, I did another 'top'.  Here is the results from that

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
30992 root      18   0  261m 162m 9124 D 10.0 65.5   0:37.72 y2base

As you can see, it's taking up a ton of memory, and does this the entire time the package manager window is open.

Hope this helps.
-Joe
