I have a box running that as much as possible, I would like the VM
system to favor caching writes and metadata over program run space...

Meaning, say on a 64MB box, if a program needed 100MB's of memory, that
program would be forced to page/swap, while 32MB's of RAM (or whatever),
is still caching filesystem writes.

Essentially, the memory priority needs to be on caching...

Is this possible with 3.4?
