Accumulating swap over time

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Running FC4 kernel 2.6.14-1.1653_FC4smp. I seem to accumulate a large amount of swap over time. (A few days. I'm not running any unusual apps. My memory stastics (xosview) says I have gobs of free memory but after a while, even with a gig or more of free RAM my swap goes up to several hundred megabytes and things slow way down. The disk swaps madly and then backs off for a while. It seems to be cyclic in nature but the swap never goes away until a reboot. At all times I have in excess of a gig of free RAM. The only apps I'm running are Firefox, Thunderbird, openoffice 2.0, perhaps a music player on this machine under KDE 3.5.0.

Thanks
Doug P
