Hmmm... the last time I saw your numbers, ocfs2's foot print was 15M.
You'll have to do better than that.
Anycase, Luis problem is the relationship between swap and cached buffers.
Which kernel is this?

It seems that ocfs has an unfixed memory leak even in the most recent

I hope to make a more detailed bug report on Monday.

Hi,
This is a bit off topic, hope there is not a problem.
Anyone out there experiencing high swapping with the kernel
retaining a large amount of buffers? This used to be a problem on 2.4,
and I usually changed /proc/sys/vm/freepages to fix it. But on 2.6
this parameter no longer exists.
One of the servers here is holding over 3.5Gb of cache even when
using over 700Mb of swap, and free memory is always low.

Swap: 2048248 723064 1325184

I am tuning /proc/sys/vm/swappiness, but this seems to have no
effect at all. Changed from 60 to 10 and seems to have no effect. The
server runs Oracle RAC with OCFS2.

Luis
