xfs corrupted

[Stefanita Rares Dumitrescu]

        -m maxmem
               Specifies the approximate maximum amount of memory, in 
megabytes, to use for xfs_repair.  xfs_repair has its own internal block 
cache which will scale out up to the lesser of  the  process’s  virtual
               address limit or about 75% of the system’s physical RAM. 
  This option overrides these limits.

               NOTE: These memory limits are only approximate and may 
use more than the specified limit.

I set this at 3 gb limit, but it's at 2.5 gb of swap already used and 
still going up :/
