Also, Linux is very aggressive about swapping out idle pages. (Some would even say too aggressive.) Even if you have what you think is plenty of RAM, it's quite likely Linux will swap out some stuff in order to make more room for the disk cache.
Is there a way to disable this aggressive swapping?


You could try tuning /proc/sys/vm/swappiness but I'm not sure sarge kernel 
supports it.

Thanks. I've compiled 2.6.22 from source, so I'll try that.
