45M of data into swap at once the otherday...it was weird. I just turned off swap all together. I have enough ram in the machine that I shouldn't need swap.
"Shouldn't need swap" and "Can't make good use of swap" are two different things. The more virtual memory the box has, the better. Turn your swap back on - Linux is designed to run with swap and the VM is tuned to use it. Just because you don't understand it, doesn't mean it's bad when it gets used! -- "...our desktop is falling behind stability-wise and feature wise to KDE ...when I went to Mexico in December to the facility where we launched gnome, they had all switched to KDE3." - Miguel de Icaza, March 2003
