Hi Linux Gurus,

I just wanted to be more knowledgeable of the the SWAP. When I checked my
machine's Memory usage using top, i see this report:

Cpu(s):  7.8% us,  2.1% sy,  0.0% ni, 90.2% id,  0.0% wa,  0.0% hi,  0.0% si
Mem:    507276k total,   500964k used,     6312k free,    62324k buffers
Swap:   522072k total,       * 0k used*,   522072k free,   178940k cached

Does this mean my machine is not using any swap?

Also,I confirmed it when I do a free command:

                 total          used           free     shared
buffers     cached
Mem:        507276     500364       6912          0      59292     178744
-/+ buffers/cache:     262328     244948
Swap:       522072          0         522072

Is there a way I can make my machine use the RAM at the same time the swap,
so that both memories share workload on my machine.

Any help is greatly appreciated...

Happy new Year..:)

Yours,
Dylan
