This is one app, even though I use it infrequently, would prefer that it never be swapped out. Mainly when I want to use it, I *WANT* it now (ie not waiting for it to come back from swap) This is just my oppinion. I personally feel that cache should use available memory, not already used memory (swapping apps out for more cache). -- Lab tests show that use of micro$oft causes cancer in lab animals - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
