Re: [PERFORM] Swapping on Solaris

[Kevin Schroeder]

Maybe, I'm just seeing a problem where none exists.  I ran sar -w 3 100 and 
I actually did not see any swap activity despite the fact that I've got 
500+MB of swap file being used.

I take that back.  There actually is some paging going on.  I ran sar -g 
5 10 and when a request was made (totally about 10 DB queries) my pgout/s 
jumped to 5.8 and my ppgout/s jumped to 121.8.  pgfree/s also jumped to 
121.80.
I'm fairly sure that the pi and po numbers include file IO in Solaris, 
because of the unified VM and file systems.
