Thrashing is caused by under allocation of the minimum
number of pages required by a process, forcing it to
continuously page fault. The system can detect thrashing by
evaluating the level of CPU utilization as compared to the
level of multiprogramming. It can be eliminated by reducing
the level of multiprogramming.
