What is gaim upto on my system?
Hi,
I noticed some slowness in certain simple tasts today e.g. changing
focus from mozilla to thunderbird. After noticing this 3-4 times in less
than 5minutes I checked the status with free:
$ free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 775600 765140 10460 0 5816 96792
-/+ buffers/cache: 662532 113068
Swap: 979924 979924 0
So the swap is 100% full and the RAM is hover at some where around 98%.
So a quick look at gnome system monitor shows is several gaim process
runing on the system. To be precise:
$ ps uax | grep gaim | wc -l
560
I had noticed a few days back that gaim had around 5 or 6 processes and
was surprised. I killed those and started it again. But 560 seems to be
way too much. Has anyone noticed this? Any reasons as to why this is
happenning?
Thanks,
/ks
