The following reply was made to PR kern/1186; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Poul-Henning Kamp <phk@critter.tfs.com> To: root@jc.f1.ru Cc: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Subject: Re: kern/1186: MFS doesn't mark memory free when it's filespace cleaned Date: Fri, 10 May 1996 17:45:25 +0000 This is expected behaviour. (see the paper in /share/doc/papers on the subject) Real solution: MFS is a hack, and a real "VMFS" should be made instead for "/tmp" use. Kirk said that this would be "really easy" so now I hope he will assign it as homework for Jordan :-) -- Poul-Henning Kamp | phk@FreeBSD.ORG FreeBSD Core-team. http://www.freebsd.org/~phk | phk@login.dknet.dk Private mailbox. whois: [PHK] | phk@ref.tfs.com TRW Financial Systems, Inc.
