Just noticed a problem with my laptop fully using swap and a major
culprit seems to be setroubleshootd. From top it appeared to be using
excessive vsize:
1881 root 20 0 611m 1484 524 S 0.0 0.1 0:21.17 setroubleshootd
So I restarted it:
# free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 1027704 637460 390244 0 4496 46400
-/+ buffers/cache: 586564 441140
Swap: 1048568 1023676 24892
# service setroubleshoot restart
Stopping setroubleshootd: free
[ OK ]
Starting setroubleshootd: [ OK ]
# free

Mem: 1027704 630096 397608 0 5172 47336
-/+ buffers/cache: 577588 450116
Swap: 1048568 628444 420124
#
So it was was 400MB in size (and all swapped due to recent memory
pressure). This seems somewhat excessive. Also after I'd restarted
setroubleshootd, auditd went wild and maxed the cpu out until I restarted
that too.
I'm using fully updated Fedora 7.

Cheers,
