My copy uses no TNC (for now) and a filtered
connection to rotate.  It's also using Tiger maps
(though I rarely pan it anywhere) and it downloads one
radar GIF every ten minutes or so directly from NOAA.

Top shows:
  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND        
 
34796  10m 4276 R 16.6  2.3 156:42.48 xastir

This is running on an Athlon K6 with 512 MB RAM
(though some of it is used for on-board video).  Only
problem I'm having right now is the mouse not working
but that's not Xastir's fault.
