- There is a bug in the SWAPPER.DAT manager which causes the swapper to
- grow without bound, eventually causing performance to grind to a crawl
- and your swapdisk to get full. This bug was supposed to be fixed for the
- Sevice Pack, but it wasn't (not entirely, at least). Call up the OS/2
- bug-line and mention APAR PJ06511 and see if they can give you any
- additional info.
