I just noticed something bizzar on my 2.1R system. After running out of swap space quicker than I expected, I tried running a testswap program that simply continues to malloc a page (4K) of memory until it dies. At any point I suspend the program and check it with ps, ps reports a VSZ twice which I have allocated with malloc! On my 2.2-current (as of 11/21), it reports exactly what I have allocated. Is there some VM bug in 2.1R that went unnoticed or a malloc bug in 2.1R? Steven
