I have a 2GB dual opteron workstation running Ubuntu 5.04 with
2.6.11-1-amd64-k8-smp on MSI K8T Master2-FAR
I am experiencing kswapd using 98% of cpu. My Googling implied that
this had been fixed in 2.6.11 - is there still a known problem? I
wasn't very clear about this after searching the archives, and I'd be
grateful for information - I'm not an expert I'm afraid, and I'd like
to be sure it isn't a hardware problem. If there is a problem, is there
a workaround (e.g. a boot parameter that I might supply?) or is it OK
simply to allow the cpu usage to continue (temperatures are only a
couple of degrees higher).
I don't know if it's relevent but I notice that dmesg reports:-
Restarting tasks...<6> Strange, khubd not stopped
Strange, kswapd0 not stopped
Strange, kseriod not stopped
done
Swap is not actually used:-
total used free shared buffers
cached Mem: 2055816 438068 1617748 0
49528 164808
-/+ buffers/cache: 223732 1832084
Swap: 2104464 0 2104464
I'd appreciate a Cc, as I'm not subscribed.
Thanks,
- Richard.
