Remember swap is "RAM + swap devices". The notion that "/tmp is mounted on swap" says that the backing store for that file system may be RAM and/or swap devices. For performance reasons, RAM is preferred. It is only if you are running short on RAM that swap devices should be seeing any I/O operations. -- Mike Gerdts http://mgerdts.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
