I'm not talking about the scanning speed. What I'm seeing is that vi
continuously touches it pages, but as soon as _some_ pages are needed,
_all_ pages are swapped out. An operation that took a few minutes
before, takes now several hours (hmm, maybe days... the test that I
started on 2.2 yesterday still isn't finished :( ).

bye, Roman
