We already reached that conclusion. ;-) Anyway, if it is a memory leak, the swap should start to fill up sooner or later. Keep in mind thought, that it would be waste of memory, if your systems and application use about 4GB , to leave the other 4GB doing nothing. Linux will gradually fill it up with cache and buffers. And looking at the numbers, the system's cache is already about 3GB big: 2867736k cached So I think this system is running smoothly... -Sietse
