Does anyone know of a way to figure out how much swap space is in use under System V? I added the sticky bit to my shells and vi. Now I would like to see if I should make a bigger swap partition or if I should buy more memory for my 3B1. I've seen this on other systems, and am hopeing it can be done easily. I don't mind doing the programming if someone could just tell me where the data is. Cliff -- Clifford C.

Another possibility is a program /etc/swap

Now I On System V Release 2 Version 2 (paging) and later releases, the sar command has the -r option. It tell how much memory and also how much swap space is currently available. It gives you a history of free memory and swap space. Peyton Yanchurak

Release 3 is paging.... If you don't know what you're talking about you should not be posting to UNIX-WIZARDS. SVR2V2(VAX) was in fact a paging release. How about answering the fellow's question instead of trying to tell him that his system isn't what he knows it is?

The last system V release I had any dealings with before 3.1 was 2.0.5.... And here I was wondering if the articles from this site were even getting out to the world due to lack of response. At least this one did (and it would be one that I was wrong :-(. Randy P.S. Am I correct in thinking that Release 3 introduced streams, then?
