That's not happening on my box. It has 64 MB real memory, 128 MB swap area mounted like this: /dev/da0s1b none swap sw 0 0 pstat -s says: Device 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Type /dev/da0s1b 131072 10244 120828 8% Interleaved Is there a way to check the free list of the kernel? Maybe I can find out what action triggers eating al its memory. Ben To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
