That is what the Linux kernel does. You don't need to do anything to activate. It just happens.
That's what I thought. Never the less, for a file server I can imagine that you'd want to tune the vm characteristics, the number of NFS threads, and even, perhaps, the network MTU differently from a desktop. And since this is a NAS on the LAN, you can probably alter the rsize and wsize (provided you don't exceed the network MTU). Since this is a NAS, you probably want to alter the network buffer queue size as well, the kernel won't normally allocate enough memory there. Of course anything that you modify in /proc file system is temporary, because its the value that's stored in the RAM, which does not persist across reboots. You can make these entries permanent across reboots by making an entry in sysctl.conf. -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
