If you have adequate memory, services should not be using Swap, since swap is the use of hard disk space for when memory is short for swapping applications in and out.

I think you need at least 4GB ram installed on any system. There's no mystery here, just a lack of resources. When you start using swap on ANY system, performance suffers. Install more ram and you will see an immediate improvement." I inferred from this that I needed to increase the ram to 4 GB, and turn off the swap What I am hearing now is that if I have enough ram, the system will not use the swap Thanks again for your help Ken From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tony Graziano Sent: Saturday, February 25, 2012 5:20 PM To: Discussion list for users of sipXecs software Subject: Re: [sipx-users] All phone registrations expiring I'm saying it doesn't matter how much swap you have or don't have... you still need a reasonable amount of ram. If you are running out of ram that quickly you should have more. Go ahead and turn off swap, wait until the ram is fine and login and run a cdr report and see how that works (or doesn't) for you. See how the whole permgenspace things works without enough ram... Good luck.

If these are FAKE registrations (script or dos attack), address this at your firewall.
