Dear all,

I am trying to improve the speed of my fs code. I have a fixed sized 
buffer for my fs, I currently use kmalloc for allocation of buffers 
greater than 4k, use get_free_page for 4k buffers and vmalloc for large 
buffers. Is there any benefits using the slab cache? If so whats the 
difference of using slab cache than kmalloc? Thanks for comments.

regards,
David
