Ok, this is just plain weird

Ever since I started using the beyond kernel instead of the standard one, my RAM and swap just seem to be slowly filling up for no apparent reason, and I haven't got the slightest idea why it does this. Before using beyond, I never even touched my swap, and now it's already filled to 116 MB...

Does anyone have any idea what can cause this?

Could be that swap prefetch or mapped watermark are  making the difference, compared to vanilla kernel.

Check Con's page for more info (especially news section).
