We are actually seeing similar crashes on our multi-access machines.
Now, we *are* already running with Hartmut Reuter's patch that reduces
the saved tokens to what is actually needed. So there is something else.
With kdump (I believe the more recent ones compile correctly at least
on i386) you can find out how many PAGs are in use, 'kdump -users'
shows something like over 2000 on some of our systems which I find
surprising.
I wonder if there is a problem with PAG garbage collection. But even
without Hartmut's patch the amount of space actually wasted is
worrying but should not be fatal.
