I got the solution. echo "1 15 30"> /proc/sys/vm/pagecache and sysctl -p resolved it. What I was missing earlier was "did not run sysctl -p" after changing the values in /proc/sys/vm/pagecache. Anyhow, I appreciate if somebody can provide with documents on these kind of kernel parameters. thanks nagarjuna -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Nagarjuna Rao Cherukuri Sent: Monday, November 21, 2005 2:46 PM To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: kswapd issue Hi, I am running RHEL AS 3.0 My "kswapd" is using heavy CPU.
