Hi Alexander,

No, no. HighMem is for > 1GB phys memory. You probably are talking about PAE ?
bit another situation. When I have 600-1000Mb of RAM free, real memory that is used by applications is something near 1000-1400Mb (it's ok), but virtual
So you are saying that there are times when phys-memory usage goes significantly above 1G memory. If that's the case then it defenitely is not an issue with high mem.
memory is more than 2Gb. So system begin to swap, although real memory isn't overfilled.
What is getting swapped ? How did you find out that system is getting swapped ? I'm not an expert, but I've a feeling that you probably need to play with some proc variables. System memory pages can get swapped out if the amount of phys mem ory falls below some limit. BTW which 2.6 kernel are you using.. Anand
