There are a few documents you may want to read: "Page replacement in Linux 2.4 memory management" http://surriel.com/lectures/ "Design elements of the FreeBSD VM" http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/vm-design/ Not all text of both documents is appropriate, but you should be able to puzzle together the right pieces ... cheers, Rik -- "Linux holds advantages over the single-vendor commercial OS" -- Microsoft's "Competing with Linux" document http://www.surriel.com/ http://distro.conectiva.com/ -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
