I don't think so, because AFAIK the bdflush daemon is in the refrigerator by
this point and it is consistently when a particular page number is submitted
that the first 'flush' occurs. I thought it might be that some threshhold is
reached. Oh - just in case there's anyone wondering, I'm not trying to write
to anything other than an IDE swap partition :>

Regards,

Nigel
