Ryan,
The free memory is in Linux a not very useful number. Usually because cache
(contains mostly data read from disk) and buffer grows.
So only reporting free memory is useless. Reporting the full output of
'free' would be more usefull.
Additionally, when I look at the numbers reported by PS, I don't think these
are high or anything.
It would be good if you'd include the ps output when the thing is about to
'grind to a halt' including a couple'lines of 'vmstat 1' and, of course, the
output of 'free'.
BTW, which version of top (top -v) do you use and on which kernel? I haven't
seen a top yet that displays iowait, actv, in_d and in_c yet.
