And get cliphoard <http://www.unna.org/unna/utilites/cliphoard.pkg> too.
I love that little utility - it lets you have up to 20 items in the
screen-edge clipboard. I'd imagine that the more you allow, the more
heap it takes when not in use, but I haven't actually tested that.
I find that 5 is a good limit for my uses, as I'll often have 3 items
stuck to the screen edge at a time, but I haven't ever wanted more than
5. (I had to go into prefs to find out what I had set it at!)
There's also the little task switcher program which some other people
mentioned - another excellent little utility.
