Hm. Never seen anything like that. Even with tens of gigabytes swapped out. > So as such, is there a way to push all contents in swap back into memory? If > not, there should be. Have you tried to delete the swap device? I've often wanted to do this, though. Especially after some huge errant process has gobbled up all the memory and flushed everything out to swap. It seemed more desirable to be able to just tell the system to page everything back in rather than wait for pages to be pulled in randomly on demand. (And there's the possibility that it could all be slurped back in efficiently rather than with random IO.) -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ perf-discuss mailing list perf-discuss@opensolaris.org
