Hi, where can I find documentation on the vm.defer_swapspace_pageouts sysctl? LINT only mentions it, without explaining, man sysctl doesn't mention it at all, and even Google yields very few useful results... I was looking for a way to tune swap-usage a bit, I heard Linux has a "swappiness" setting (telling the kernel how easy it should go with paging out), and I hoped FreeBSD would have something similar. vm.defer_swapspace_pageouts might do the trick, but so it seems to be poorly documented...
