Description Karel Zak 2005-03-17 13:19:25 UTC
Jes Sorensen <jes@trained-....>:

I have been having a few issues with slabtop overflowing a number of
calculations on a small test box with 44GB of RAM in it to the point
where numbers started printing as being negative.

This should take care of it (at least the cases I noticed) if you're
interested in putting it into RHEL etc.

Cheers,
Jes
