we also see freezes on all our atheros nodes, at least once a day,
no matter if swap is used or not (we have some 32mb nodes also).

looks like it.

you can set swappincess to 100, but i think this is not
your/our problem. i bet it has something to to with the ehternet-phy
and or the missing watchdog or an compile/toolchain issue (bad generated
code). can you open a ticket about this and share your problems?

use trunk/target/linux/config-3.3, IMHO atheros is still at 3.3.8
