Something seems to be eating up all of my swap, but it defies explanation:

root@faldara:~# free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:          3929       2881       1048        146        192       1314
- -/+ buffers/cache:       1374       2555
Swap:         2047       2047          0

root@faldara:~# (for file in /proc/*/status ; do cat $file ; done) |
awk '/VmSwap/{sum += $2}END{ print sum}'
151804

So according to free, my entire 2 gb of swap is used, yet according to
proc, the total swap used by all processes in the system is only 151
mb.  How can this be?
