 That should have been:
crom:/etc# ipcs -um

------ Shared Memory Status --------
segments allocated 114
pages allocated 1108
pages resident  411
pages swapped   7
Swap performance: 296 attempts   7 successes

 BTW. Anyone know where you can increase the number of segments ? sysctl
-a doesn't seem to mention anything, and a quick look at the shm.[ch] in
the source isn't much help.
