1G ram used on 1G box? Is it thrashing the disk?
Disk is 1000 times slower than RAM .. if you get into random
paging, just reboot your box or get more RAM: the time taken
is no longer relevant. This happened to me: Mlton builds on
my 2G box in 15 minutes. On my 1G box it takes for ever ..
I think the disk would pass its MTBF before the job would
finish :)
