I have processes running on a AW51E (Ultra 30) that drop into
virtual memory several days after boot.  They then consume the
machine with lots of disk thrashing.  I've experimented with
vfstab and /sbin/swapadd, and eliminated swap.  This stops the
disk thrashing, but it left me with a /tmp directory that is
small and completely memory-based.  I'm wondering if I should
further modify /etc/vfstab, and mount /tmp to /dev/md/dsk/d1?
If anyone has more expert knowledge on how to go about this,
I'd appreciate the help.

Thanks,
Jim Murphy
