Mail-Followup-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.90.11i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Swap: 64M Total, 41M Used, 23M Free, 64% Inuse I run -current on my laptop and use the save to disk feature of the laptop rather extensively. It seems my swap gets consumed and not released. Primarily I run 5 rxvt sessions 5 zsh sessions (modern type with shared libs and loadable modules) 1 netscape 4.04 with 3 navigator windows 1 applixware spreadsheet app. 1 afterstep 1.4.4 with 9 windows (1024x768 each) Generally I start with 11M of swap used and as time goes along it is all used. Closing netscape and the applixware app gets me back to only 41M used. Who is holding on to the 41M? I have 48MBs of RAM.
