Jason just committed what I believe works as a fix for this. Try
setting vm.vtextmin=20 and vm.anonmin=20 and see if that makes your
life better (or 30 or something, though the lower the number that will
work for you the better.) I've been running with those two set to 20
and his patch and the problem no longer afflicts me. Your mileage may
differ -- it depends on your app mix -- but the problem is certainly
much less apparent now.
