Priority paging is already implemented I thought.. For example, if I have 20M Buff or 20M Cache and memory gets tight, it will realloc the memory in cache/buff in my experience (perhaps not all of it but a very big portion of it).. Is this what you mean? Or am I perhaps missing what you're saying? :-) Cheers, -JD- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
