Yes, although swap usage on these machines is generally zero (they have 4 GB of RAM and there's rarely anything in swap at all). Even if there was some swap usage, though, that shouldn't cause this problem, should it? The point of putting swap on RAID is to avoid exactly this kind of issue. -- Robert L Mathews
