Each morning I log in and do a pstat -T. A week ago after rebooting the machine it said 3M/63M. Today it says 21M/63M, and every day that number seems to rise. I'm running popper, sendmail and named. This machine normally isn't used for anything else, and I can't imagine what should require 21 megabytes of swap space. Has anyone else ever encountered this problem?
