I've installed solaris express and its been working great. While creating a 
small multi-process perl program I ran the gnome "system monitor" tool to view 
memory usage. When the program runs real ram usages increases as expected. 
However, the tool indicated that I wasn't using any swap which I thought was 
kind of unusual. 

How/Can I tell if the swap partition is being used. Is there something that 
will tell you if any page faults are being generated?

df gives the following info

swap                   850M   876K   849M     1%    /etc/svc/volatile

so it would seem that the swap partition(slice) is mounted and available. Maybe 
the gnome tool doesn't report this information correctly?

Regards
