That's my point though about not taking I/O time away from other tasks.
Only mirror pages to swap if there's nothing else blocked for I/O - put
any free time to work, and mirror pages if swap memory allows in
anticipation that it may be swapped out later. I suppose a
least-recently-used approach on the pages would have the highest
payback. I realize the CPU may be used a little more, but other than
rc5des it's idle a good bit of the time anyway - perhaps this could be
one step above an idle task.
