Ivan, I'm certain that you will also have the same issues when running version 1.2.4a on your particular system configuration. Your problem is your linux kernel.
There are serious paging issues in version 2.4.8. From my experience versions 2.4.7 and 2.4.10 are stable while running ASPSeek. Version 2.4.10 seems to give better performance in general over 2.4.7. Both 2.4.8 and 2.4.9 have quite serious VM bugs which only seem to present when under high load. Current release is 2.4.13 although I'm sticking to 2.4.10 at this stage as I've heard that releases .11 and .12 were also very buggy. I recommend that you first upgrade or downgrade your kernel, try running index again and then get back to the list with the results. I'm fairly certain you will see your issues vanish, touch wood. Anyone else that is experiencing similar issues, please check your kernel version. If you are running one of those mentioned above, try an upgrade/downgrade. Regards, Matt.
