I use this machine also as my desktop.

I also run Mozilla, MPlayer and MLdonkey on this box.

It was enough when I turned them off a while ago because of PR kern/26435.

Yes, it looks good. But your swap partition is really oversize. I wonder
if you have performance and stability problems because too much of the
kernel memory is wasted for managing it. I think you can reduce amount
of that partition which is really used for swap via "fstab". You should
perhaps try that. My system uses 2.5GB swap on top of 1GB physical memory.
