I offer you my point of view. If it goes to inactive list, then it is faster to get reclaimed later, right? In other word, now it is faulted in...then maybe secs later (under high VM pressure), swapped out again. If it goes to active list straight, then it will "live" longer in RAM. regards, Mulyadi. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
