The XFS FAQ isn't an appropriate place for that tuning suggestion, because it doesn't tune XFS. vm.vfs_cache_pressure tunes the page cache and is file system agnostic. Thus you should remove that entry from the FAQ. Perhaps a blog entry would be more appropriate, or a post to LKML, so it gets archived. However, this is likely already posted somewhere, as you can't be the first to run into this issue. -- Stan _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
