I do something similar. 486 at 120MHz (some funny overdrive thing) with 16MB of RAM. I don't think it swaps *that* much, but I haven't really monitored it carefully. Buildworld used to take about 20 hours, but about the time of the malloc change to AJ default it shot up, even with /etc/malloc.conf -> j (well, Hj actually, but it was the same with just j I think). I'm not sure why, but it doesn't really bother me much. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@FreeBSD.org / PGP: 0x99392F7D FreeBSD Documentation Project / To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
