Hello,

A new question has been asked in "MariaDB FAQ" by alexandraarreaza. Please 
answer it at http://mariadb.com/kb/en/swap-usage-wont-decrease/ as the person 
asking the question may not be subscribed to the mailing list.

--------------------------------
We have a 5 DB nodes Galera Cluster in Production (MariaDB 10.0).

About a week ago a DB import was performed over an existing DB (Its size ~30G) 
and during this process, all DB nodes started complaining about swap usage and 
haven't stopped complaining since then (e.g: One of them would be using 814 MB 
out of 4095 MB). 

I have read a good few articles about MySQL and swapping issues (this is a good 
one: 
https://blog.jcole.us/2010/09/28/mysql-swap-insanity-and-the-numa-architecture/)
 and also about swapping in MariaDB 
(https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/configuring-swappiness/), but still can't 
find out a way of solving this problem without restarting MySQL.

We have NUMA architecture with 2 nodes and 96G of RAM. Our buffer pool size is 
70G and it is set to use 12 innodb_buffer_pool_instances.

1) Is there any fix to this situation besides restarting MySQL?

2) Is there a way of tuning our cluster to avoid swapping in the future?

Thanks.
