|
|
81 | I often get asked about this, and I think, no, they didn't cause extra |
|
|
82 | bloat. If you compare a minimal rxvt and a minimal urxvt, you can see |
|
|
83 | that the urxvt binary is larger (due to some encoding tables always being |
|
|
84 | compiled in), but it actually uses less memory (RSS) after startup. Even |
|
|
85 | with <code>--disable-everything</code>, this comparison is a bit unfair, as many |
|
|
86 | features unique to urxvt (locale, encoding conversion, iso14755 etc.) are |
|
|
87 | already in use in this mode. |

|
|
107 | <p>The very large size of the text section is explained by the east-asian |
|
|
108 | encoding tables, which, if unused, take up disk space but nothing else |
|
|
109 | and can be compiled out unless you rely on X11 core fonts that use those |
|
|
110 | encodings. The BSS size comes from the 64k emergency buffer that my c++ |
|
|
111 | compiler allocates (but of course doesn't use unless you are out of |
|
|
112 | memory). Also, using an xft font instead of a core font immediately adds a |
|
|
113 | few megabytes of RSS. Xft indeed is responsible for a lot of RSS even when |
|
|
114 | not used.</p> |
|
|
115 | </dd> |
|
|
116 | <dd> |
|
|
117 | <p>Of course, due to every character using two or four bytes instead of one, |
|
|
118 | a large scrollback buffer will ultimately make rxvt-unicode use more |
|
|
119 | memory.</p> |
|
|

121 | <dd> |
|
|
122 | <p>Compared to e.g. Eterm (5112k), aterm (3132k) and xterm (4680k), this |
|
|
123 | still fares rather well. And compared to some monsters like gnome-terminal |
|
|
124 | (21152k + extra 4204k in separate processes) or konsole (22200k + extra |
|
|
125 | 43180k in daemons that stay around after exit, plus half aminute of |
|

|

131 | </dt> |
|
|
132 | <dd> |
|
|
133 | Is this a question? :) It comes up very often. The simple answer is: I had |
|
|
134 | to write it, and C++ allowed me to write and maintain it in a fraction |
|
|
135 | of the time and effort (which is a scarce resource for me). Put even |
|
|
136 | shorter: It simply wouldn't exist without C++. |
|
|
137 | </dd> |
|
|
138 | <dd> |
|
|
139 | <p>My personal stance on this is that C++ is less portable than C, but in |
|
|
140 | the case of rxvt-unicode this hardly matters, as its portability limits |
|
|
141 | are defined by things like X11, pseudo terminals, locale support and unix |
|
|
142 | domain sockets, which are all less portable than C++ itself.</p> |
|
|
143 | </dd> |
|
|
144 | <dd> |
|
|
145 | <p>Regarding the bloat, see the above question: It's easy to write programs |
|
|
146 | in C that use gobs of memory, an certainly possible to write programs in |
|
|
147 | C++ that don't. C++ also often comes with large libraries, but this is |
|
|
148 | not necessarily the case with GCC. Here is what rxvt links against on my |

216 | You should build one binary with the default options. <em>configure</em> |
|
|
217 | now enables most useful options, and the trend goes to making them |
|
|
218 | runtime-switchable, too, so there is usually no drawback to enbaling them, |
|
|
219 | except higher disk and possibly memory usage. The perl interpreter should |
|
|
220 | be enabled, as important functionality (menus, selection, likely more in |
|
|
221 | the future) depends on it. |
|
|
222 | </dd> |
|
|
223 | <dd> |
|
|
224 | <p>You should not overwrite the <code>perl-ext-common</code> snd <code>perl-ext</code> resources |
|
|
225 | system-wide (except maybe with <code>defaults</code>). This will result in useful |
|
|
226 | behaviour. If your distribution aims at low memory, add an empty |
|
|
227 | <code>perl-ext-common</code> resource to the app-defaults file. This will keep the |
|
|
228 | perl interpreter disabled until the user enables it.</p> |
|
|
229 | </dd> |
|
|
230 | <dd> |
|
|
231 | <p>If you can/want build more binaries, I recommend building a minimal |
|
|
232 | one with <code>--disable-everything</code> (very useful) and a maximal one with |
|
|
233 | <a href="#item__2d_2denable_2deverything"><code>--enable-everything</code></a> (less useful, it will be very big due to a lot of |

|
|
240 | Likely not. While I honestly try to make it secure, and am probably |
|
|
241 | not bad at it, I think it is simply unreasonable to expect all of |
|
|
242 | freetype + fontconfig + xft + xlib + ... + rxvt-unicode itself to all be |
|
|
243 | secure. Also, rxvt-unicode disables some options when it detects that it |
|
|
244 | runs setuid or setgid, which is not nice. |

245 | </dd> |
|

246 | <dd> |
|
|
247 | <p>Elevated privileges are only required for utmp and pty operations on some |
