This has happened to me at least since early 1.2.x versions. Since I moved
this installation over to the machine with only 8mb of RAM, it's been much
more noticeable (as tasks tend to swap more often, ahem..). I also notice
it on the 486 with 16mb, whenever I do something nice like run X with several
virtual screens full of xpaint/xv/xdvi/xterm/whatever... Just to let you
know it's more than a localized occurance.

On the bright side of things, since I stabilized phaedrus with a correctly-
compiled kernel, it's never crashed. Ever! (well, due to Linux bugs, at
least ;) ) Good job, guys. Keep up the great work.
