I had some time this weekend to check this out. I found another 128 MB
RAM, put it into the server (and tested it OK). I took the server to my
office and connected it directly to the main switch, to rule out
networking bottlenecks.
I opened up 'top' on the server and switched to memory display (Shift-O,
O, Enter).
On my desktop PC I transferred a bunch of files, and memory usage
instantly went from around 110 MB to 250 MB, and then it began to swap
and left the transfer with a steady 4800 k/s stream.
So I guess it was effectively a problem of missing RAM.
Cheers,
Niki
PS : machine is also running dhcpd, named, httpd, mysqld, squid, smb,
and I feel like I'm moving an appartment in a Morris Mini Cooper :o)
