Carlos, Exactly the response I was looking for. After having to deal with the appalling memory management of other PC O/S you have answered the question perfectly.
However, I now need to know is there a process that removes items from cache after a period of time or will available memory be used to cache continually without being flushed.
The best advice to those worrying about Linux's memory management is: Don't! Linux does a great job or managing the available RAM and few people need to tinker with any parameters governing its memory management.
Now my query comes down to "unused cache flush time" and "flush cache due to processing demands determination"
Why? What application mix are you running that's so unusual and / or critical in its memory requirements? Are you actually experiencing problems you think relate to this characteristics?
Thanks Scott
