Hi,

I'm currently doing a build of the 1.6 branch on my macppc machine,
and I notice that "ps -aux" reports the original ./build.sh as being
swapped out:

root  14166  0.0  0.4  544  1068 p1 SN+   1:08AM 0:00.11 /usr/local/tools/bin/nbmake install BUILD_tools n
root  14165  0.0  0.0  612   376 p1 SWN+       - 0:00.00 /bin/sh -ec (cd /local/netbsdsrc-1.6/src && /usr/
root  18795  0.0  0.0  556  1060 p1 SWN+       - 0:00.00 /usr/local/tools/bin/nbmake do-build

root   1071  0.0  0.0  492  1068 p1 SWN+       - 0:00.00 /usr/local/tools/bin/nbmake build 
root    261  0.0  0.0  636   460 p1 SWN+       - 0:00.00 /bin/sh ./build.sh 
root    248  0.0  0.0  764   916 p1 SWs        - 0:00.00 bash 
root    247  0.0  0.4  412   948 ?? Ss   12:08AM 0:04.93 SCREEN (screen-3.9.10)

but at the same time "swapctl -lk" tells me

bash-2.05# swapctl -lk
Device      1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Priority
/dev/wd1b     1048576        0  1048576     0%    0

No swap space used!?

Where are the swapped out processes swapped to?

confused,
chris
