When I run Xfree and some programs, freebsd very fast reaches swap limit, and when swap usage is 100% I can't do anything. No key response, nothing works even ctrl+alt+delete only disk is reading something. Why this happens on so ql system, or maybe there is work-around ? please help, I need Xfree so I can't just stop using them. And one more thing. When I start for first time XFree swap usage is low (about 10%-15%). When I run some programs swap usage incraces to about 60%-80% but when I close all programs and there is only XFree (like I start XFree for first time) still swap usage is about 60%-80%. How I can free up swap space back to 10%-15%, or maybe I missed something.. fnx To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
