swapping over nfs

[Jon A. Tankersley]

One thing I noticed is the fudge factor is kinda large for the swap
partitions (6%).  This is due to the default settings for the partition
with respect to inodes, etc.  Since /export/swap will usually have less
than 50 (or even 20) files and really doesn't need lost+found, wouldn't it
be better to change the newfs options(mkfs options) and trim the fat down
to 1% overhead?  I've been meaning to try this, as I am also running with
111% /export/swap, but haven't tried it yet.

Has anybody figured out why something tries to use /export/swap on the
server for more than nfs swap?  I get 'file system full' messages every
once in a while.  Dunno what vmunix is doing...
