So provide stats. What other things are running , abviously your box is 
loaded with other things that consume ram also.

You should be able to get some more details i think when you provide more 
info.

Like i asked in my previous posting also.

So, why does it swap? you tell us! Show whats on the box, show whats 
using memmory and so on, use tools like vmstat and so on, top, atop, ect 
ect.

Bye,
Raymond.
