Today I had to restart the system in question; before doing so I checked
ps output: pagedaemon still was at -1.99...

   8 ?? DK   0:-1.99 [pagedaemon]

Hmm, why is it not using cpu time? However, after the restart it was
still the same:

   8 ?? DK   0:-1.99 [pagedaemon]

I restarted again, just for fun, and since then (17 minutes) I'm seeing

   8 ?? DK   0:00.00 [pagedaemon]


Hints?

TIA, Jukka
