dyson 1997/12/04 21:41:08 PST Modified files: sys/vm vm_pageout.c Log: Add new (very useful) tunable for pageout daemon. The flag changes the maximum pageout rate: sysctl -w vm.vm_maxlaunder=n 1 < n < inf. If paging heavily on large systems, it is likely that a performance improvement can be achieved by increasing the parameter. On a large system, the parm is 32, but numbers as large as 128 can make a big difference. If paging is expensive, you might try decreasing the number to 1-8. Revision Changes Path 1.102 +20 -18 src/sys/vm/vm_pageout.c
