Hi,
I am experimentally minimizing the footprint of a SLES10 WebSphere 7 instance 
and seeing the following. 
Swap is to v-disk.

top:
Tasks: 120 total,   3 running, 117 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie
Cpu(s):  5.3%us,  0.3%sy,  0.0%ni, 94.0%id,  0.3%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.0%si,  0.0%st
Mem:   2050776k total,  2041236k used,     9540k free,   120320k buffers
Swap:   849964k total,   819676k used,    30288k free,   431684k cached

rmf:
Total memory size         2002MB      Swap space size          830MB 
Total memory used         1507MB      % Swap space used       96.4%    
   Used for buffer         117MB      Swap-in rate           1.233/s    
   Used for shared           0MB      Swap-out rate              0/s    
   Used for cache          422MB      Page-in rate           4.933/s 
Total free memory            7MB      Page-out rate         35.888/s     
                    
The cache number looks interesting because it remains large while swap space is 
being used up. This particular
instance has been up for 30+ days, so maybe there is incremental swap space 
saturation over time?
