[OpenIndiana-discuss] MPT SGL mem alloc failed

[Timothy Coalson]

Well, I don't have the same symptoms as him, his swap was almost entirely used:

tim at myelin2:/var/adm$ swap -lh
swapfile             dev    swaplo   blocks     free
/dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/swap 96,2        4K      12G      12G

Though I am not logged into a desktop (it is sitting at the gdm
greeter).  This machine also doesn't have nvidia graphics, so can't
compare there, either.
