On my 64MB+128MB swap system, systat reports like this: Mem:KB REAL VIRTUAL VN PAGER SWAP PAGER Tot Share Tot Share Free in out in out Act 20116 2128 3819008 3480 4724 count All 63892 11452 904292 19628 pages The figure for Total Active Virtual strikes me as being just a little out of whack. Curiously, it gives a more believable figure in single user mode. This isn't 3.0 specific...it happend in the 2.2.x series as well, but it only does it on this one machine. -john To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
