But that is no reason to leave Lynx (or any other program) being a memory
hog in all circumstances!

Arrgggh!  it seems even the Lynx developers have the evil "make it slow and
bloated and do no more to Joe Blow User than it did 10 years ago" disease.
(As in, take a Mac SE running System 7, and some PowerMac running 8.5.. The
"general UI stuff" [i.e. not compiling programs and such] will be just as
snappy on the SE..  Yes, higher bit depths and foofy graphics are all part of
it, but I'm meaning to include those "fluffy" additions..)
