:Do an msync with MS_SYNC someplace.  Also, use MAP_NOSYNC in
:mmap until 4.3 when Matt Dillon plans to make that the default behavior.

    I plan on making it the default behavior only for Linux emulation,
    to emulate what Linux does.

    For FreeBSD native you still need to specify MAP_NOSYNC.  Eventually
    I hope to make it the default behavior for FreeBSD native but some
    work needs to be done on the VM heuristics first (or on an incremental
    system sync) to avoid collecting too many dirty pages.
