Hi all.
Does anyone out there have a solution to flushing swap, besides for
rebooting the machine, buying more ram or increasing the size of the swap
partition ?
My swap fills up and doesn't seem to let go of its contents after I quit
out of applications. I've got 32mb of RAM and am running X.
[chain] ~$ swapinfo
Device 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Type
/dev/wd1s1b 44128 42000 2064 95% Interleaved
The processes I'm running are
[chain] ~$ ps -uaxwww | grep khetan | awk {'print $11'}
/usr/local/lib/netscape/netscape.bin
xearth
fvwm95-2
-bash
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fvwm95-2//FvwmButtons
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fvwm95-2//FvwmTaskBar
