There is something wrong with -stable. I reported this to John about a month
ago, maybe two (I forget exactly).
I noticed it when I upgraded from 32MBytes to 96MBytes of RAM; my swap usage,
instead of going down, went drastically up.
I am pretty sure it is related to MFS in my case; I was unable to see an MFS
process in PHK's ps listing.
Right now, I am at:
Device 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Type
/dev/sd0s1b 131072 4448 126560 3% Interleaved
/dev/sd1s1b 131072 4408 126600 3% Interleaved
Total 262016 8856 253160 3%
I'm sorry, but with 96MBytes of RAM, there is no reason for my system to swap,
given what it does. And that amount will slowly grow; when I rebooted for the
OS upgrade on Saturday, it was at 39MBytes or so (MFS is 32MBytes on my
system).
However: when I shut down to single user mode, it dropped down to about
100Kbytes in use.
So, I think there's a leak, but I'm not sure *where* it is. Or perhaps it's
just bad swap usage by the kernel.
