Do you mean your comment on the swap_pager error:

Quote:
 "AFAICT that is just a trigger-happy timer..it's
  supposed to detect when a swap operation took too
  long to complete, but it also triggers on swapfiles
  since they're so much less efficient (i.e. slower)
  than swapping onto a bare device."
EndQuote.

Remains the question: using this swapfile always
worked
very well with 5-Stable, but suddenly with 6 I run
into
these troubles.

I hoped that the debugger output made some sense to
an expert as to why this happens with 6, but never
with 5....

Rob.
