kswapd issue

I got the solution.

echo "1       15      30"> /proc/sys/vm/pagecache
and 
sysctl -p

resolved it.

What I was missing earlier was "did not run sysctl -p" after changing
the values in /proc/sys/vm/pagecache.

Anyhow, I appreciate if somebody can provide with documents on these
kind of kernel parameters.

thanks

Subject: kswapd issue


Hi,




I am running RHEL AS 3.0




My "kswapd" is using heavy CPU. Is there a known issue for kswapd in
RHEL As 3.0? I read some where that I need to adjust the values in
"/proc/sys/vm/pagecache". Cany anybody provide me with a link for
detailed document about setting pagecache?




thanks

nagarjuna
