Date: Wed, 07 Feb 1996 06:04:31 GMT Lines: 14 Message-ID: <823673122.24218@loddon.demon.co.uk> NNTP-Posting-Host: loddon.demon.co.uk X-NNTP-Posting-Host: loddon.demon.co.uk X-Newsreader: Forte Free Agent 1.0.82 Is there a kernel parameter (or something else) to define how much of the available memory can be used as cache ? On some UNIXes there is a parameter to do this. My rationale for this requirement is for use on a Web server, where I want very high speed access to the Web pages - therefore, I'd always like them in memory. If there is a better way than using cache, please tell me. TIA Stuart
