I've been too lazy to test Zlatko's test proggie, but Gimp with some large images frees all memory correctly so I assume that things are working properly (there was quite a bit in swap and it was freed correctly). I'd really like a few comments on the patch, especially from Stephen -- who is the expert on the swap cache code. I've decided to stay out of bed, despite the flu, because I will need to refill my energy reserves and I simply eat better when out of bed :) cheers, Rik -- the flu hits, the flu hits, the flu hits -- MORE +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Linux memory management tour guide.
