Hi,

when you run osm2pgsql in slim mode with a large cache, then could it not release the cache memory once it reaches the "Sorting data and creating indexes" stage? It is this phase where postgresql tends to consume a lot of memory for index creation, and the specific settings on the machine I'm running it on at the moment have led to all of osm2pgsql's 10 GB being swapped out - which, if the memory is really unused, isn't a big deal but I wonder if the memory could not have been freed anyway?

Bye
Frederik
