I am seeing the message:
  swap_pager: suggest more swap space: 126MB
on a frequent bsis and I do not recall having seen that recently.  I am using
a new kernel that I CVSUP'd yesterday (3.0-CURRENT).

I am curious as to why this message is being generated, is it serious and does
it mean 126Mb *more* or total?

As I have 131Mb swap already I have a very hard time believing I need 126Mb
more.  Of course, if I already have 131Mb, I already have 126Mb don't I?  Oh -
swapinfo tells me I have 84Mb available.

I notice there was a post from Chris Csanady on 2/21/1998 to freebsd-current (
message ID 199802212346.RAA22729@friley585.res.iastate.edu) with a similar
question, but it seems there is no answer.

PS - Why, when I search on swap_pager, via your Web page, does it seem to be
replacing the underscore with a space?  I got a lot of hits on swap, and a few
more hits on pager, but nothing I could see on swap_pager.  

PPS - How do I CC: any replies, discussion, etc such that it will be stored in
the archives?

Thanks,
Mik
