At this point I'm wondering if the gstat interval (presently 10 seconds) might well be shortened and the ten second sleep eliminated. On the runs that succeed swap usage changes little in twenty seconds, but the failures seem to to culminate rather briskly. Thanks for reading, and for your help! bob prohaska
