Whoa now?! 16 shm segments? ....if that's true something is terribly
wrong with either X or the kernel's handling of shm .... that's scary. this is currently what i'm seeing after only 30 min of X ------ Shared Memory Status -------- segments allocated 2008 pages allocated 13842 pages resident 12281 pages swapped 1120 Swap performance: 5517 attempts 1120 successes
------ Semaphore Status -------- used arrays = 0 allocated semaphores = 0
------ Messages: Status -------- allocated queues = 0 used headers = 0 used space = 0 bytes
It increases every time i execute the command ipcs -u i am not even running the amount of apps i normally do. This seems to be a leak, but i'm not sure if it's from X or the kernel. I'm leaning towards X at this point. But the real problem i have with is the kernel is crashing when the requests for shm segments goes over the max for a while.
