Hi all!
I just noticed that sarge is using swap, but there is still plenty of
memory free:
# free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 1036532 441552 594980 0 23732 265492
-/+ buffers/cache: 152328 884204
Swap: 351752 0 351752
# uname -a
Linux debian 2.6.8-1-686 #1 Thu Nov 25 04:34:30 UTC 2004 i686 GNU/Linux
My previous distro (Fedora2) didn't use swap at all. It just occupied
almost all RAM, of course with lots of "cached" showing up at # free.
How can one force it to use RAM first and then swap ?
(I've google, but didn't find a solution)
Thanks & best regards,
Hannes.
