High memory usage, especcially of xombrero (xxxterm) normal?

Hi there...

If I get the output right the amount of memory used by xombrero is quite high, isn't it? It's even more than opera with more windows open. I opened vimprobable2 too to compare the webkit based browsers. Is this amount normal? (564MB with only 2 sites open, nothing special...) What do you think?

Is the memory usage of my Xorg normal? Dwm is my wm...
 
Xombrero is different from most browsers. You may want to look at the installed documentation. Asking the maintainer and Peereboom's forum may help a bit more.
