I must correct myself. While this all was definitely the case the last
time I tried to investigate this issue (one or two months ago) the
garbage-collect statement is not true anymore. I did M-x
garbage-collect today when the memory was getting short and then Emacs
froze (in the sense of "didn't respond, even to C-g"), without gkrellm
reporting much progress, so I killed it (after 20 seconds or so - aeons
for a computer).
I did not experience a slowdown, however (maybe I've faster RAM?).
Michael.
