Usually, in OS, some of the kernel's code and data pages may not be replaceable, e.g. the nonpaged pool in Windows NT/2000. I would like to find out, in Linux what are the portion of pages in memory, which are not replacable. And what are they used for in details? Lastly, may I know how to find out the size of the non-replacable pages in memory, given any workload. Many thanks! -- Cheers! --Zou Min zoum@comp.nus.edu.sg URL: http://www.comp.nus.edu.sg/~zoum ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Punch, brothers! punch with care!
