He has plenty of memory though, 163MB of it is "free" and in use as disk cache for want of anything better to do with it. If the top is representative, it is nothing to do with lack of memory, although you're right he has no swap enabled. Next time it starts being slow do the top again and try to see which processes are using the most CPU and confirm that there is some reasonable amount of "free" memory (free + cached in top). ntpd shouldn't cause any freezes. -Andy -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
