[CentOS] CentOS 3 vs. CentOS 4 Memory Utilization

[Vasiliy Boulytchev]

Gents, am I reading this information incorrectly, or is this box also 
swapping about 128M?  Swapping will quickly grind your system to a halt.

I guess this all depends on how many people are connecting to your 
apache servers...  Turn on your server-info and see :)
