Dude, are we the same person? I also have a Beige G3. Do you have a Sun Ultra1?

I'll have to check on the swap files. I didn't realize that it dynamically created them like that.

I've been looking for a good indicator of ``low on memory'', but I can't seem to find a really good one, and I'm not enough of a Mach or BSD guru to be able to interpret vm_stat output for this purpose. Your idea is the best I've seen so far.

Did your 128->310 upgrade help?
