Now this is fine because that was what i wanted, but it seems that when I type in 'top' at console, my swap file was reported to at 100%, ie, none of was being used, ever. I'm just wondering if this is due to a miscompiling of the kernel, or if there should be some modules compiled for virtual memory, or if this is just a plain fact of Freebsd. Greatly appreciated. :-P To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
