2006-03-02 Thread Nathan Vidican
Typically, we sit between 0-10% of swap used... this morning I came in, and output of top is showing 76% used; that's some 3Gigs+ more than usual. System load is still sitting at 0.05, and no adverse effects seem to be coming our way. No particular processes appear to be using abnormal amounts

Is there a way to see which programs have been swapped out / eg. use up swap ? I am recently seeing an increase in swap usage where no real change has been made and I'm just curious if there is anything more to 'swap' then /usr/sbin/swapinfo. /Stephan -- Stephan

Hi. Is there a way to make FreeBSD to free the space on swap? Mem: 235M Active, 108M Inact, 100M Wired, 23M Cache, 60M Buf, 32M Free Swap: 500M Total, 256K Used, 500M Free The usage of swap is growing during uptime of the server, and even if I free some additional memory (by killing some apps) t

Whenever I start up gnome I'm getting panics and reboots, until I got wise and ran ``swapoff'' and started up gnome. No panics. How can I check my swap parition in FreeBSD. I've used fsck and badblocks on ext2 in Linux, but how do I check my FreeBSD swap? -- mycr0ft __
