That sounds extremely non-likely as it would imply the kernel fails to honor a successful mlockall(), unless other processes on the same machine are being swapped out. Did the process really have permission to do the mlockall()? (Not that I disagree in any way that swap should be disabled, +1 on that.) -- / Peter Schuller (@scode on twitter)
