Hmm, it seems..
When a program copies large amount of files, recent_rotated_file increases
rapidly and
rotate_sum
----------
recent_rotated_anon
will be very big.
And %ap will be big regardless of vm_swappiness if it's not 0.
I think # of recent_successful_pageout(anon/file) should be took into account...
I'm sorry if I miss something.
