Gora: The figures are TOTAL RAM usage and not RAM attributed to the DE. I am
unaware how I can calc GNOME mem usage

The 90-95% processor usage is ONLY with GNOME with OpenBox and is normal
with all other DE. In all cases NO other USER started apps were running
except those started by the default system.

>CPU usage was constantly at 90-95%, and you were not using anything other
than the desktop? That sounds like there is something seriously wrong.
