My guess would be that, before the reboot, something had wired (or, if not, then touched frequently enough to keep it in core) a large chunk of memory, which forced the swapping. Swap files are expected to be slower than swap partitions (though if you’re swapping to a disk, the seek times are likely to dominate in both cases). > > I don’t suppose there’s capture of the output of top from before the reboot? No, I did not saved it. When I started the buildworld, I started in parallel already a poudriere jail to build around 1600 ports. Later, when I realized that the buildworld took so long, I stopped (killed) the poudriere jail. IIRC the "swapctl -l" showed before the boot that the swap files have been used. I could re-create the situation on next buildworld. matthias -- Matthias Apitz, ✉ guru_at_unixarea.de, http://www.unixarea.de/ ☎ +49-176-38902045 No! Nein! ¡No!
