i have no clue.  i wish you could find out; it doesn't happen for me.  my xemacs.exe is using 15 MB.

we do use more memory with the unicode tables, but that should only be on the order of 1 MB.

i wrote a fun to show memory usage.  update to the latest cvs and do

M-x show-memory-usage.

let me know if you see anything weird.

Scratch that...there is no infinite loop for me -- xemacs was just
using a LOT of memory (>60M), and was taking quite some time to start
gnus because of all the GC going on.

Why is the new xemacs using so much memory?
