Koristi relativno mnogo swap-a, dmesg ima poruke o OOM-u, dakle treba mu više swap-a (ideja: smanjiti broj apache childova, jer je apache-ssl zapravo jako velik).

Mašina zapravo brutalno swap-a, pa nije ni čudo da se vuče kao crknuta krava:

Brojevi su namjerno konzervativno mali, cilj je prestati koristiti swap.

uptime oko je 2 (što je za dvoprocesorsku mašinu o.k.), a zapravo ima i nešto idle CPU-a što je uvijek zgodno.
