There's a patch in -mm which attempts to do so, and afair, succeeds. However the performance seems to be crappy. Its main benefit at present is in reducing worst-case scheduling latencies (scan_swap_map). ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.11-rc3/2.6.11-rc3-mm2/broken-out/swapspace-layout-improvements-fix.patch - 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/
