Memory usage is deceptive sometimes.  Programs like X are shown as using lots 
of memory, when actually they're just using shared libraries that other apps 
are using equally.  I agree that it would be pretty bad for a terminal 
emulator to use 38 megs, but I doubt that's actually the case.  Heh.. I could 
be wrong, though ;)
