Tweedie" Cc: Rik van Riel , Linux MM , Andrea Arcangeli , Alan Cox List-ID: There's a new pre-patch on ftp.kernel.org. This has Stephens page-in read-ahead code, and I clearly separated the cases where kswapd tries to throw something out vs a normal user - I suspect Stephen can agree with the new setup. I expect that it needs to be tested in different configurations to find the optimal values for various tunables, but hopefully this is it when it comes to basic code. It also has everything Alan has sent me so far integrated, along with various other peoples patches. Linus -- This is a majordomo managed list.
