I'm using Transmission to do torrent and it's taking a lot of RAM, that's why I added the swap at first but it does seem like my free RAM doesn't drop below 60MB (only the buffers drop), so I guess it's normal?
I got my swap partition set up but seems like the router doesn't want to utilize it pass 2.5MB...does anyone else have the same problem?...is it because I still have some free RAM left? Below is the output from the free command (it almost always look like that).
I'm using Merlin 374.39 on...
I solved the problem with a swap file...but after that it came back...it seems like the new problem is that it wouldn't write more than 2Mb to the swap file...
I have similar problem (transmission keeps dying but it didn't show problem with file permission). I turned up the log level to 3 and didn't really tell me anything. Did you get yours fix? I'm running Merlin build 3.0.0.4.374.39 and Transmission 2.82
Below is the log from start to dead
