Your problem is physical memory, not swap space. Your scan rate (sr) is high (ideally should be 0), so the system is trying to find memory pages to free. But your reclaims (re) is also high. As fast as pages are placed on the free list, they are reclaimed.

That confirms my suspicions. Thanks! Smilie We are supposed to be getting the next model up from the RP5400 which allows for 24 Gigs of RAM. But, from the looks of it, that may not be enough. Scary. I think we'll have to look into getting our vendor to tune their code a little better. The multiple, per-process lookup tables are probably the worst of it.
