[TxMt] Re: Annoying slowdowns of textmate...

[Andrew Farley]

I pretty much always have VMware running with a minimalist web dev  
environment (gentoo), Apple Mail, QuickSilver, Safari, Adium,  
Terminal, and only startup Firefox for some more in-depth CSS/Ajax  
debugging (firebug ftw).

I have 4G of RAM, and the problem I'm describing I can replicate upon  
a fresh reboot with only my Gentoo VM (1GB RAM), Safari, and TextMate  
running.  That's why I was leaning towards the problem being by  
TextMate, and not by low memory conditions.
