Thunderbird does « stuff » to the subject:

If you want to play more, look at pmap….

I did a Firefox vs Konqueror
I did a Thunderbird vs KMail

Hi Hub,

what’s pmap? Google doesn’t help a lot :)
Btw, do you use SC now? Happy with it?

pmap stands for « physical address maps », not sure what tool is, if any
but you can look at the smaps which looks like a similar kind of thing
/proc//smaps gives you loads of mind bendingly boring stuff about
memory consumption. Probably interesting if you parsed it etc. or if you
are a programmer ;)

that should be /proc/_pid_/smaps

And if you think that is bad…. ;)

malcolm: I can’t really laugh on this one… I’m not sure that Sylpheed-Claws’ IMAP implementation is the fastest thing on earth :-)
