According to Thomas Evans: > Where is my memory going? My swap file keeps getting full. > Run 2/5 Gamma on a machine with 20Meg swap and 32 Meg real memory. > By my math, the total mem usage shown by ps-aux commadn is 25M. Yet > I'm using 17M of the swap (thats 50 Meg total?). Never use for swap less than at least the physical memory. Remember also that swap is a backup of the physical memory, not an extension (like in Linux) of it. -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- The daemon is FREE! -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 3.0-CURRENT #39: Sun Feb 2 22:12:44 CET 1997
