Subject2.1.91pre2 death by swapping.
Hi,
 Well, shortly after I wrote my previous message, 2.1.91pre2 died a nasty
 death. This system has 64mb RAM and was lightly loaded, the main thing
 it was doing was playing a MOD. It started to swap out of the blue, the
 mod started skipping more and more, and eventually stopped playing
 entiredly while the machine thrashed. It continued thrashing for 10-15
 minutes, every program totally stopped while this was happening. Using
 the magic sysrq show memory option, I could see that the free pages
 number was fluctuating between 10200 and 10250 or so. Eventually I rebooted
 back to 2.1.90 with the magic sysrq.
