I don't have a fix, but I am seeing someting simualar in 2.0.29. This is
also a new "feature". I do not use aliasing, but do use Masquerading. The
problem has become so noticable that I can not get through compiling the
kernel source without a problem. The machine is almost useless. The
problem has gotten worse as I am building up on news messages and innd
usage. However, I can kill the PID of innd and still have the problem.

Is it possible to fill swap space and not release it?

I am going to try and update to 2.1.42 and see if this helps things.

Please let me know if you come up with a solution!
