I still was not able to get my test machine damaging the swap.state file I am still loading the cache_dir and so fare I have 2Gigs in there and the rebuild is some seconds only. No reset or kill did it, I tried every couple of hours. That brought me to check my startup scripts which I haven't touch since long time and I am not using the -F option. Since my production caches do have considerable size and the rebuild is up to 2 minutes and some big caches need 4-5 minutes I start thinking that the swap.state mess has something to do with that I am not starting with the -F option. What do you think? is it possible that the problem is hidden here? If I am not able to make it happen here on my test machine til monday morning I will sacrify two production caches and restart one with -F and the other not and under incoming request load. Then we'll see. michel ... **************************************************** Datacenter Matik http://datacenter.matik.com.br E-Mail e Data Hosting Service para Profissionais. ****************************************************
