To see if swap is even going to help you you might: # Create an empty 1Gb file dd if=/dev/zero of=/someNFSdirectory/mySwapFile bs=1G count=1 # Prepare it as a swap device mkswap /someNFSdirectory/mySwapFile # Add it to the kernel's (possibly empty) pool of swap devices swapon /someNFSdirectory/mySwapFile ...and then run your test. If no joy just delete that swapFile, else you could enshrine the whole mess in an fstab line: /someNFSdirectory/mySwapFile none swap sw 0 0 _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
