Unfortunately, there is lack of knowledge on how to properly test them. I've set up a page on the Linux-MM wiki with the intent to describe LRU's weaknesses and collect benchmarks which exhibit its problems. Contributions are essential to get this moving, please help. At the moment there is one test (miniDB) available. http://www.linux-mm.org/PageReplacementTesting -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
