Well, I'm not usually so worried about VM but I got to work this moring at 10:15am and with in an hour of logging into my workstation swap usage went from 2M after starting KDE2 to 26M..this isn't right. It never uses this much with 2.4.4 or 2.4.7.
I guess I should backdown.. but it's weird that no one else is seeing this behavior.
Hi Ben, I am running a vanilla 2.4.13 kernel on a PIII 800 with 384Megs of ram under X 4.1 and Afterstep. I compiled Mozilla 0.95 for the first time a couple of days ago. Next morning whilst running Moz with a number of tabs open my system locked up completely - no keyboard input of any kind possible. After the reboot and running Moz again I noticed that cpu usage was very high - 98% of which was kswapd. I have never seen that before. I have been playing with Moz since then and (whilst I find it slow to load and somewhat unresponsive), the problems have not recurred. I do not regularly monitor swap usage and my experience may or may not be relevant, but I offer it for what it is worth.
