That depends upon whether there are more suitable ways of fixing "the wrong thing". There may not be - it could well be that present behaviour is correct for the testcase, but it leaves the system in the wrong state for your large workload shift. In that case, prefetching (ie: restoring system state approximately to that which prevailed prior to "testcase") might well be a suitable fix. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
