locasiopeiuss 0 Posted January 27, 2004 I have installed RED HAT 9.0, and it works fine for a time ..After using some applications my memory decrease so much that my OS isn't working properly any more.. When i boot 'swap' is activated and enabled,but when i type 'free' at a command shell it shows me that swap is using 0MB !!!! I have 513 MB ram and 1024MB swap... Share this post Link to post
Dapper Dan 0 Posted January 27, 2004 With 512 ram and no swap, you should be running faster than with a swap! That is dependant of course on what type apps you are running. I play Half-Life and it's mods under Winex3, and they run noticably faster when my swap is unmounted. All other of my programs run faster too. Share this post Link to post
