penguin1 (Windows Vista Home Premium x64): 77 processes, 825 threads.
penguin2 (MacOS X Tiger 10.4.11): 73 processes, 246 threads. Seems like my desktop has a lot more threads/processes running. xboxrulz |

I got like 26 processes/258MB RAM on a Dell Latitude D600, Windows XP SP2. With Firefox running.
I could narrow it down to "19"if I wanted. Or if I know I'm not going to need the Internet/network capability I can get it down to 11 processes /<90RAM.

I have like 39 running right now, but I usually have lower. I try to keep as much stuff off of my startup, and I just try to keep it junk free. But of course, it never happens that way.

Windows Server 2008 Core (Longhorn) launched within Microsoft's Virtual Server kills the host system but only uses up a handful of processes. It's Core, however, so that means you don't get a Desktop environment, just a command prompt for installing and configuring basic server roles :-) Although, it appears that Microsoft's VHD has mood swings in determining when to allow you a Desktop and when not to. Must be a configuration issue...
*blinks at a Desktop being constructed right before his very eyes in Server 2008* Hmm...I wonder what button I pushed. |
