Not really, because nospam is just plain wrong. He responded as above to this statement: "Computers that "don't do much of anything" don't need or use that type of effective design. But those with real loads do." There is no pot or kettle in that. You and I posted a pair of examples that shows exactly how opposite from reality his concept is. In fact there are many large busy computer systems that are purposely configured to not require ever using swap space. The reason is simple: running out of swap space is unconscionably slow, and to be avoided. -- Floyd L. Davidson http://www.apaflo.com/ Ukpeagvik (Barrow, Alaska) floyd@apaflo.com
