Hello -stable: Is anyone else here having an out-of-swap condition, apparently caused by apache2? This has only been happening since about the end of June. It seems to start about 24 hours after the system has been rebooted after a cvsup/{build,install}world. OS is -stable, as of 2002/07/05; this started happening (I think) after some port-updating (apache2) on 28 June. Webserver is apache2, from -ports, along with mod_php4. Apache/2.0.39 (Unix) DAV/2 PHP/4.2.1 While this event is underway, top shows httpd at the top (eating quite a lot of CPU) & with a status of "PFAULT" (or something like that). After the event "finishes" httpd & the system appear to be running again, just fine. Looking around in the logs, I find the following: From /var/log/messages: Jul 6 19:42:09 <kern.crit> localhost /kernel: swap_pager: out of swap space Jul 6 19:42:09 <kern.crit> localhost /kernel: swap_pager_getswapspace: failed Jul 6 19:42:09 <kern.err> localhost /kernel: pid 33475 (httpd), uid 80, was killed: out of swap space . .

The above is, to me, admittedly rather sketchy; any suggestions as to how I might trigger this myself & capture any more helpful logging/debugging data/info? Is this even a FreeBSD issue? i.e. Should I take this up with the Apache Group? Or is this some kind of pilot-error on my part?
