Thanks for the explanation. What was confusing me was that under
Ubuntu, which I run on my laptop, amarokapp uses just one thread, the
difference being I guess that on my desktop box running Fedora I have
it configured to use realplayer while on the laptop it is using xine.

Hmmm, I do have crossfades enabled under Ubuntu, but I only see the one process.

No big deal, just wondering.

FWIW, on both systems I am using v1.4.0

Erm, virtual memory is shared??? I thought it was swapped to disk.
