Dear Chuck:

But I found that other linux box had used swap partition when many physical RAM left.

root@FW_knl:/home/shiy# free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:        255320     247564       7756          0      15652     197560
-/+ buffers/cache:      34352     220968
Swap:       996020       1484     994536
root@FW_knl:/home/shiy#
