- I have a dual processor, 64mb Aviion, running Universe under Unix.
-
- We have only just gone live (using the DYnix library software, to run
- the City of Adelaide library), and have run into a weird problem.
-
- I have 200,000 blocks of swap space, and somethingis eating it!
-
- IT looks like something is spawning rogue ttymon processes, I only
- hve 2 genned, but there were 6 of the little buggers there when I looked.
- And my swap space was 0.
-
- THe local DG support centre is looking into it, but meanwhile - anyone
- have any ideas?
