i think it means you are using 58%, so you have 42% available, your maths are a bit off

a swap file is like a page file or virtual memory, hopefully you know what they are because i don't

ok thanks, actually that shouyld have said 58% not 56 (TYPO...Oops&#33

you could see where someone might wonder if that was usage or availability....


yeah that clears up the SWAP, I was assuming it was virtual, just was making sure.....
