Sorry if this is a trivial question... But I recently upgraded my RAM (from 245 MB to 768 MB), and because of this, I've been paying close attention to my memory usage. I was pretty surprised to see that I'm still hitting swap after running a couple simple apps in X.
ps shows that none of the currently running processes are using a significant percentage of my RAM. Logging out and back in doesn't help. I can only guess that the kernel is using all this memory -- can anyone recommend a tool to watch kernel memory usage, or any possible fixes for this? I can't believe I'm using more physical memory now than I previously had in physical and swap together! -Eamon -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
