Hello Andi,

Thanks for trying this patch....but I still believe it needs some tunings.
I will be really interested to get some stats. Could you send me the
report logged by Alt-SysReq-M after some [normal] swap utilization ?
Also, adding your cpu and hard drive type would help a lot (this way
I can have an idea about the ratio between the memory/cpu access
and the I/O throughput).

Since I'm asking for something, I believe it's fair to do the same.
Here is what I got after a working day using this patch.

CPU: AMD k6 3D 550Mhz (1097 bogomips)
HD:   IDE WDC ATA66

SysRq: Show Memory
Mem-info:
Free pages:        3116kB (     0kB HighMem)

  DMA: 119*4kB 22*8kB 1*16kB 1*32kB 3*64kB 0*128kB 0*256kB 0*512kB 0*1024kB
0*2048kB = 892kB)
  Normal: 24*4kB 18*8kB 22*16kB 1*32kB 1*64kB 2*128kB 3*256kB 1*512kB 0*1024kB
0*2048kB = 2224kB)
  HighMem: = 0kB)
Swap cache: add 59950 [32651-27299], del 57064, find 134795/143195 [4413] 94%

Thanks !
