Have not found any program to see what programs are using the swap, but as
I think about it, the current method is not very "smart". I guess any
other method is difficult to implement.
How wonder how the current method affects performance.
Basically if there is a surge of memory usage and processes start that use
the swap and these processes are long lived.. I wonder if performance
will be affected.
