> The problems with swap that appears to continually grow and never shrink appear > to be back in 950928-SNAP :( :(. Right now im using 54% of Swap (41 under an > hour ago), with X running (same X as I've been running for months and months). I'm having what appears to be a similar problem with 2.0.5. I see used swap space go up as users do their thing (netscape and X are particular culprits), but I've NEVER seen it go down. We invariably end up rebooting every 3 days or so when we can't log in anymore. The system log says I'm out of swap space, though I've never been able to be on the system and watch it die when it runs out -- I see it hit maybe 50%, and then the next time I come back we have to reboot. I was wondering if maybe it was something else, but I haven't been able to draw any other connections. Brian
