Thanks for all your help!

I just found a few additional things one can or should do when 
investigating swap-related issues:

* dmesg - always do that!
* Look for a RAM-disk. These things are kernel memory. So they don't 
show up in "smem" et.al.
* Take a look at some of swaps contents:
strings -f /dev/sda3 | shuf -n  100000  | less


Cheers, Shorty
