Is there a reason it's going this far into swap this far? system is System is linux 2.4.0-test3
[root@innerfire /root]# cat /proc/meminfo total: used: free: shared: buffers: cached: Mem: 30593024 27238400 3354624 0 692224 15863808 Swap: 21151744 21106688 45056 MemTotal: 29876 kB MemFree: 3276 kB MemShared: 0 kB Buffers: 676 kB Cached: 15492 kB HighTotal: 0 kB HighFree: 0 kB LowTotal: 29876 kB LowFree: 3276 kB SwapTotal: 20656 kB SwapFree: 44 kB
On the bright side it seems to be still responsive when this far into swap and it used to be unusable when this far into swap.
