| |
Here's a little swapping buglet I've noticed over the last couple of days: The first thing I'll do when I boot up my box is start up pppd to connect to my ISP, and immediately after I'll do an ls of any directory. (I'm in the habit of _constantly_ typing ls, even when I have no reason too =)
Result? Mad swapping for about five or six seconds.
I'd expect it to thrash a little bit since I'm loading those two from the disk (since they're not in the disk cache) but 5 to 6 seconds seems a bit much.
My compliments on the swapping and memory management improvements that have come about in 2.1!
Just wanted to let you know about the little things that are acting a bit strange because of those changes =)
