The system became all responsive again, and it didn't swap anymore (applications were actually going into RAM and not into swap..). I have no idea at all why this behavior occured. -- Regards, wK (www.doubleukay.com) smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature

memory 'leak' with 5.2.1?
Hi list, I have been running 5.2.1 on a Celeron with 512MB RAM for nearly two months straight, but have been experiencing heavy swapping these past few days. In a last-ditch attempt, I stopped all the services hoping to reclaim the memory somehow. The output from top (after stopping services) reads: Mem: 12M Active, 10M Inact, 451M Wired, 1364K Cache, 59M Buf, 11M Free Swap: 1024M Total, 15M Used, 1009M Free, 1% Inuse, 12K In I noticed that the amount of 'wired' memory before and after stopping the services remains the same, at > 400MB. The swap usage went down from ~200MB to 15MB however. Is it normal to have so much RAM 'wired'? (I don't really understand 'wired' as described in the handbook) -- Regards, wK (www.doubleukay.com) smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature
