Hm, don't know about aterm and its memory management, but that's for |
| 16 |
sure: _swappiness_ should have absolutely nothing to do with this. The |
| 17 |
swap management isn't up to userspace applications, that's kernel's |
| 18 |
matter. Well, there might be some small probability left that your swap |
| 19 |
management is somewhat hosed due to bugs in the kernel but that is very |
| 20 |
unlikely and wouldn't explain why these conditions only occur with |
| 21 |
aterm and only affect aterm. |
