Put it this way: you said "my app is swapping, why is this"? The only coherent answer is that its virtual memory demand is too high for your machine (in combination with all the other apps you're running). As to *why* it's too high, it could be anything from a basic requirement (e.g. you're inverting huge matrices in the most simplistic way) to a simple memory leak. That's why it's important to say what the app is doing. Also, does it show this behaviour all the time, or only after it's been running for a long time? > I even had the same behavior with firefox ! I have sluggish behaviour with Firefox (it gets bigger and slower over time), but it's definitely caused by an add-on. I'm in the process of discovering which one. poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
