Subject:   Re: OS/2 Memory Warning

Hmmm, well I can tell you I have a very similiar memory configuration and have never run into memory problems with OS/2 warp and v 6.10 SAS before. But those swapper files sizes sound way out of kilter to me. I rarely get a swap file above 15 megs when running SAS and thats usually with a a few OS/2 windows going, Web Explorer, a few utils, an editor session or two, a TF session..etc. I run a pretty loaded desktop with SAS concurrently and have no trouble. Try the OS/2 groups for help on the swapper file, though. It seems to me I've seen similiar posts about run away swap files, tho i can't recall the cure for it.

Good luck, John
