Thanks.. I did get a crash and here is the output:
Page Summary Pages MB %Tot ------------ ---------------- ---------------- ---- Kernel 11696 91 9% Anon 34441 269 28% Exec and libs 2460 19 2% Page cache 8187 63 7% Free (cachelist) 58544 457 47% Free (freelist) 9735 76 8% Total 125063 977 I did not think the Kernel usage was high.. But, I am noticing that the overall memory usage is higher than it used to be. What did you compile your IPFilters with?
