On a CentOS 4.3 box yum updated to 4.4 I have been watching the free store
via top and have been noticing it going down throughout the day. I've had
to shut this box off the hard way a couple of times because it was thrashing.
Question is, what's the culprit?
NFS
Apache 2
PHP
Perl
vsftpd
Spamassassin
Postfix
Bind 9
kernel 2.6.9-42.0.8.plus.c4 #1 Wed Jan 31 09:13:16 EST 2007 i686 i686
i386 GNU/Linux
Why isn't the swap space being used?
Is there a way to do garbage collection or otherwise get the memory back
before the system starts to thrash?
How much do the 36 loop devices cost? I followed the CD-Server HOWTO.
The box is maxed out at 512 megs of ram.
I'd hate to use cron to force a reboot every night.
