this is on a 250/4/266, 4.0d, with 128 meg of ram with swap in over
commit mode.
"swapon -s" says 11% of 194MB swap (22MB) is in use. but if you add up
all the "percent real memory usage" from the ps listing, it looks like
only about 25% of real memory is in use:
% ps -e -o pmem | awk '{sum += $1} END {print "sum = " sum}'
sum = 24.8
so if real memory is only 25% in use, why is it swapping? or is something
else using up the other 75% real memory? or am i looking at this all
wrong? or do i need another beer? basically i was trying to figure out
if we need more memory, and if so how much so that no swapping happens?
thanks
