David Greenman once stated: = FreeBSD will slowly page infrequently used pages out in favor of =file caching, and 8MB (or 32+8) is about what you'd expect to see in =this case. Poul's problem seems to be different, however. Oh, this reminds me of something I wanted to ask. Is there a way to control this behavior? Can I specify a limit of the file cache, for example (with sysctl)? Or that some process is precious, and its pages should not be swaped for file cache (without coding madvise() into it)?
