Hmm, it appears this was the legendary swap readahead code I was looking for a while ago :) But, ehhh, just what _is_ this random swap stats-based prediction algorithm, and how far from implementation is it? (and if it isn't implemented yet, what should I do to make it implemented; swapin readahead is very wanted on my memory-starved box...)
