In 2.3.x I rewrote shrink_mmap to work with a real page-LRU and I also used an MM pressure algorithm linear that should behave similarly to the one I developed in the no-swapout patch. If the 2.3.x algorithm doesn't work well for you let me know. thanks!

Last I heard Alan was still considering / testing for 2.2, so I just keep my fingers crossed :) -- * Jens Axboe <ax...@image.dk> * Linux CD-ROM Maintainer * http://www.kernel.dk - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.rutgers.edu Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
