I have removed everything from wbstartup and booted with grey screen, my fast
ram drops from 48meg to about 42meg.

So most of it is dissapearing before ever reaching the WB. I still have not
verified this but I tend to agree that it is unfortunately related to the
boing bag update. I did not keep a backup of OS3.5 before installing the bag
so I'm still not positive. If someone can tell me I am wrong and that some
other program is likely to blame, I will be happy to listen.
