I do usually to add the stats as I've needed them. I haven't specifically needed NR_ANON_PAGES for an oom-killer problem before, but I've added plenty of other output there. (it's in /proc/meminfo of course, which is the most useful...) - 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/
