I am using a new kernel that I CVSUP'd yesterday (3.0-CURRENT). I am curious as to why this message is being generated, is it serious and does it mean 126Mb *more* or total? As I have 131Mb swap already I have a very hard time believing I need 126Mb more. Of course, if I already have 131Mb, I already have 126Mb don't I? Oh - swapinfo tells me I have 84Mb available. I notice there was a post from Chris Csanady on 2/21/1998 to freebsd-current ( message ID 199802212346.RAA22729@friley585.res.iastate.edu) with a similar question, but it seems there is no answer. PS - Why, when I search on swap_pager, via your Web page, does it seem to be replacing the underscore with a space? I got a lot of hits on swap, and a few more hits on pager, but nothing I could see on swap_pager. PPS - How do I CC: any replies, discussion, etc such that it will be stored in the archives?
