Indeed, rebooting will only help temporary but adding another paging space is also just temporary.
To get rid of the problem you usually have to tune the box and try again and if this is still not working, additional memory could be helpful.
Another problem could be a memory leak that is filling up memory over time, but this would have to be examined closer. Funken's hint with the svmon -P to check which processes are using how much paging space might help in a first step.
