What it sounds like is that your system is rapidly running out of RAM< and then filling the 1.52 GB with swap files. with only 1.52 gigs of swap space you can fill that in a heartbeat, if your'e low on RAM. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
