Hi,
this I have tried to decrease the swappiness, but it seems that does not 
influence the behavior very much.
The question goes to direction if there is something wrong with the 
kernel version 39 and if we should update to 45 or what is now the 
current kernel version of SLES10 SP2
Thank you for your responce
Regards
Ivo
