The system has 128MB RAM, and 256 MB swap. Around 100MB of swap used, the system comes out and says: /kernel: swap_pager: suggest more swap space: 254 MB - Is it supposed to come out that early - What is the suggestion based on ? Is it telling me to _add_ 254MB of swap to my system (+ 254 = 510 MB), or to _increase_ my swap space, which already is above 254 ? This looks a bit weird...
