BIG improvement on my 20M/40Mswap 486
Looks as fast as it ever has.
But, I tried my "killer app" running word2x -f latex apmv11.doc
This .doc is a 250k piece of crap from MS, but it is the only .doc file
I have :)
On 2.0.33 it runs out of mem.
On 2.1.91 with you other vm patches it gets into a swap loop and never
completes.
On same with this patch:
kernel panic: Releasing swap cache pages at xxxxxxx
sorry I missed the exact location.
