I have a new system ( 4 cpu's, Intel SC450NX, 2GB memory ) and I am running
Linux 2.2.10 smp. There is 2GB of swap configured. When I run one or more
processes that total more than 1GB of memory swapping happens and
performance is poor. I would like to configure things so that either 1
process of 2GB OR more than one using a total of 2GB (approximately) would
require no swapping. I have been told that some kernel hacking may be
required but I can't seem to find a document that describes it.
Can anyone point me to appropriate documentation or suggest where to make
the appropriate changes to the kernel.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
