Hello.

Finally, I obtained "4.4BSD Book" and started reading it. In Section
5.5 of this book (p.145), it says:

  This behavior is an unwelcome side effect of the separate virtual
  memory and filesystem caches; it would be eliminated if the two
  caches were integrated.

Is this just what happned in FreeBSD 2.0.5 as described in its
REL-NOTES?

  Merged VM-File Buffer Cache
  ---------------------------
  A merged VM/buffer cache design greatly enhances overall system
  performance and makes it possible to do a number of more optimal
  memory allocation strategies that were not possible before.
