Hello,

I have upgraded this morning from 4.4-stable to 4.5-prerelease (cvsup at
08:15 GMT).

Everything was OK, until I get into a problem very similar to PR
kern/30164:

Dec 27 23:20:42 graf /kernel: sio0: 1 more silo overflow (total 284)
Dec 27 23:23:48 graf /kernel: swap_pager: out of swap space
Dec 27 23:23:48 graf /kernel: swap_pager_getswapspace: failed
Dec 27 23:23:56 graf /kernel: pid 297 (XFree86), uid 0, was killed: out of swap space

I was not running anything unusual (XFree4 + kde 2.2.2 with konqueror +
3 rxvt + one make fetch + mutt + one gcc for a middle-sized program),
and before 4.5-prerelease I had never met such a problem.

For info:
