I wrote a very simple bash script to check the capacity of my swap space
for I have a problem of swap space getting full, the script will delete
it's content when it reached 99%, my problem is sometimes it can't
detect 99% because of time interval in cron, I don't want to execute the
script every second because i think it will burden my processor, what do
you think is the possible solution. Here is my simple script:

#!/usr/local/bin/bash

use=`/usr/bin/df -h|grep swap|awk -F" " '{print $5}'`
if use="0%";
 then
   cat /dev/null 2>&1;
 elif use = "99%";
 then
   /usr/bin/rm /tmp/* > /dev/null 2>&1;
fi

Thanks.
