No; if anything, you'll see a performance improvement, since in some cases Linux can use that memory instead of going to disk. Having actual free memory would be wasting that resource. > and if there is, how can I free it? You don't, but if programs actually legitimately need the data space, the kernel will shrink the cache and buffer space. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
