SWAP usage has been high lately.  It happened RIGHT after I upgraded the
system to a new CPU, board, and RAM, and to 3.50STABLE.  I
thought maybe there was a OS issue with my SUP or something (I
was hoping).  That's when it started
happening.  God, I dont have TIME to weed thru trying new boards and new
CPUs.

I wish there was a quick fix.
