Perhaps, but I think the cause of the problem might well the priority
argument to the swap_out function. For me, it is always set to around
62, so that the swap out loop is executed a ridiculous number of
times, i.e. until all memory that can be is swapped out (which seems
to be the behaviour described). You might like to force the counter to
a sensible number (say 100) by editing the source. If you're not
confortable with that, I can try to run off my current patch. (I'm not
sure if I posted it or not).
