Ooh, my swap shrinked! ;-)

  $ ./lsblk /dev/sdb1
  NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
  sdb1   8:17   0   2G  0 disk [SWAP]

  $ ./swapon --show
  NAME      TYPE      SIZE  USED PRIO
  /dev/sdb1 partition   2M 11836    0

  $ ./swapon --show --inhuman
  NAME      TYPE         SIZE  USED PRIO
  /dev/sdb1 partition 2104476 11836    0

I think that's in 1k-blocks, isn't it?

  $ ./swapon --help | grep USED
        USED  bytes in use

Isn't USED not also in blocks?


Have a nice day,
