Hello,

I have a decstation 5000/33 running v4.3 ultrix and 40MB of 
RAM .
The problem is the machine is getting slower and slower 
with each passing day.
I only have mail and dns running on it.

This is the result I get when I run pstat -s

75292k swap configured
37276k reserved virtual address space
        256k used (192k text, 0k smem)
        49936k free, 0k wasted, 25100k missing
avail: 1559*32k 48*1k   

I think am running out of swap space.
If this is the case can someone please tell me how I can 
increase the swap space ot recover the lost space - I have 
large external disk I could use for more swap space if 
necessary.

Thanks very much in advance and hope t0o hear from you soon.

Abi
