[cfarm-admins] Request increase in swap on gcc211

[Baptiste Jonglez]

Hello,

Thanks for the report.  We are not able to monitor this machine with
munin (displayed on https://cfarm.tetaneutral.net/machines/list/ ), so we
are very likely to miss such issues.

I am adding the OpenCSW admins, maybe they have an idea on how to debug
memory issues on Solaris?  Could this be a memory leak, and is it possible
to increase the swap size on gcc211?

Thanks,
Baptiste
