Interesting observation. I do have NUMA in my kernel, and swap seems to be used instead of recycling freeing inactive memory. Top shows Mem: 506M Active, 27G Inact, 98M Laundry, 2735M Wired, 1474M Buf, 1536M Free Swap: 16G Total, 120M Used, 16G Free Perhaps, I don't understand what is meant by inactive memory. I thought that this means memory is still available in the buffer cache, but nothing is current using what is there. -- Steve _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
