I have tried using 4 GB swap (and I'll try it again soon), but it didn't
seem to help.  Also, my laptop has only 1 GB of swap, and it still freezes
with xine.  (Haven't tried heavy gimping on the laptop and I couldn't
build xine on my desktop system without rebuilding the complete pkg stuff
fron scratch.)

No mfs, all my partitions are ffs or nfs.
