Virtual memory is about to be used completely

Im quite a new about linux and the virtual memory in the webmin is about to be a full.

Real memory 5.79GB used, 9.65GB total Virtual memory 3.70GB used, 4GB total Local disk space 49.37GB used, 232.22GB total

I put the command free -m and the result is as follows,

free -m

total used free shared buffers cached

Mem: 9885 9740 144 32 84 3719

-/+ buffers/cache: 5936 3948

Swap: 4095 3786 309

Is it a bad? how can i fix it?

Thank you

Hi, suskozaver Thanks for the reply. I've checked the URL you put on. so you are suggesting to increase the size of swap? Does it affect the virtual memory less used?

swap = virtual memory

by increasing it, u'll have more available
