I'm not an expert on FreeBSD just a very happy user. My experience. I have a machine running FreeBSD 3.5 on a double processor Pentium III 350 Mhz with a SCSI HD of 8 Gb and 256Mb of RAM using 320Mb of the HD as swap. Since I instelled (more than 8 months ago) I have never seen that the system uses all the memory it has and NEVER has use a single MB of the swap area. Of course the machine is a rocket and it runs the most visited sites we have (in all the sites there about 5 million pages are displayed each month) I remember an email on the list where a guy (I'm sorry I don't remember the name) says that after testing he consider that 64 MB is more than enough for average use. I hope this helps. JB At 10:13 a.m. 13/04/00 -0500, you wrote: >I am curious as to how much ram freeBSD can cache and use.
