  Modified:    sys/kern  vfs_bio.c
               sys/i386/i386  machdep.c
  Log:
  Improve the caching of small files like directories, while not
  substantially increasing buffer space.  Specifically, we double
  the number of buffers, but allocate only half the amount of memory
  per buffer.  Note that VDIR files aren't cached unless instantiated
  in a buffer.  This will significantly improve caching.
