Hello, netter.
I have just installed XFree86 I got from agate on my 386BSD.
Then I have noticed that when I open two or more xterm, it is too slow.
It was swapping all the time.

Is this the way it is, or am i missing something here?
I have 8Meg RAM with 169Meg HD for my BSD.
And running 1024x768 with Tseng card with SONY 1304.
Thanks in advance.
