Hi,
I noticed a little thing about 2.1.105 and heavy swap usage with small
loads...
I was just running Lynx and Pine on this 486 (8MB RAM) with someone logged in
via telnet...
when I exited lynx and pine, the system was still swapping like a madman
it looks like it has cleared up now though
I've never experienced this heavy amount of swapping on 2.1.104 or earlier
