Thanks Li.
If that's a cache, the system should be able to reuse the space
there when it's low on memory, wouldn't it? What would be the
conditions where that couldn't be done? (like in my case, where
the oom killer was hired to free memory rather than reclaiming
that cache memory).
Best regards,
Stephane
