Whenever I start working with an object that contains 500+ nodes inkscape will crash and does not perform an autosave. I also experience the same issue when I do a rapid succession of undos from the keyboard. Is this a known bug?
I'm running 0.45.1 on windows xp with 660 MB of memory. Generally, don't have anything else open beside Firefox.

So I suppose at any given time you have about 200MB of free memory for Inkscape ;-)
I´m also running 0.45.1 on windows xp with 1000 MB of memory however Inkscape crashes on my computer when dealing with more than 500+ nodes. Is there a remedy to it?

My computer generally has a commit charge of ~300Mb with inkscape and firefox open. I would think this means there is plenty of memory left over for handling tasks in inkscape.

Oh, and don't give me an bs about how linux runs with less memory. I had to upgrade my PC from 128mb with windows to over 256mb to install fedora 6 with gnome on the other partition. I might have dumped windows by now but I have a crappy winmodem that isn't supported.

Depends on your choice of Linux. I have the embeddable version of Slackware running (barely) on my spare machine, an old Compaq Deskpro with 96MB main memory. I use KDE. But obviously this machine won't support Inkscape.
Slackware has dropped the Gnome interface altogether. To install e.g., Inkscape on Slack one has to get a third party addon package to get the Gnome libs. There are several out there but only one works with Slack 11 (Gware) and installation is tricky.
My main machine is Inkscape capable with Gware and 512MB main memory. My experience with Gimp indicates that, with very large memory requirements, swapping slows the machine down to unacceptable levels. I don't know if there is a 500 node limit.

Core 6 and 128Mb RAM? Unless you want to use XFCE as the deafault DE, you will not go far with only 128Mb RAM with either recent GNOME or KDE. Linux (the core system) can run on systems with as low as 16 Mb of RAM, toss in the GUI and windowing system, system services, etc, and you'll end up adding up as much as 64Mb *minimum* for a fairly recent distribution (unless you tweak it otherwise). So yeah, for any recent Linux distribution, the memory requirements are about 256Mb RAM for decent Desktop operation, for more intensive tasks, 384+ are recommended, regardless of your DE and GUI preferences, generally 512Mb RAM make for a decent workstation for i386 systems, some apps benefit from having 1Gb+ memory, though. And 64-bit Linux runs best with *at least* 512Mb RAM for normal Desktop operation and at least 1Gb for some workstation operation, still 2Gb+ are best for higher end applications and uses (not necessarily "needed", but very beneficial). In conclusion, you could say that Linux has grown "fat", it is indeed a bit bloated, but since it is composed of several pieces, you can remove some to save up some precious RAM and get a system to work with very limited resources or be more efficient with more resources... In the end is a matter of preferences.
A) I've already wrote that I've upped my ram well over 256 to install Fedora, but am not using it.
B) I asked that people not comment about the benefits of Linux.
C) I want to work on stuff with over 500 nodes.
So does anyone have useful comments about what I actually asked? In the end, I blame myself for even mentioning Linux.
