Is there a way I can prevent processes from taking up all the ram then swap until the box crashes/freezes? I'm using IEs4Linux and the wineserver seems to start taking up RAM until my box dies, it happens slowly. I am able to kill the sucker now, but I'd like to not have to worry about that. sar -r 01:00:01 PM kbmemfree kbmemused %memused kbbuffers kbcached kbswpfree kbswpused %swpused kbswpcad 01:10:01 PM 5812 949580 99.39 5560 67688 189912 1841696 90.65 33300 01:20:01 PM 4736 950656 99.50 4832 119364 0 2031608 100.00 46104 01:30:02 PM 8788 946604 99.08 1004 32360 4 2031604 100.00 10672 01:52:50 PM LINUX RESTART -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
