I am having difficulties with memory allocation in teh 2.4.17 kernel. Memory is being agressively given as cache but not retrieved to be used as 'normal' ran. Consequently, I will have a machine that has 5M 'normal' RAM, 800M 'cache' RAM and the reset coming out of swap space. I need this 'cache' RAM placed back into the available RAM pool to be used by applications. Is there a patch/kernel configuration that I can change this behavior?
