Subject: Memory used by kernel
Date: Fri, 29 Sep 2000 14:23:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20000929142323.A22858@philos.philosys.de> (raw)


Hello,

I'm running Linux 2.2.13 (from ftp.denx.de) on a TQM860L evaluation board
with 16MB of SDRAM. The final product should work with 8MB of SDRAM.

There are several papers available on how to downsize memory usage by
the applications. But how can I reduce the memory used by the kernel
(not counting drivers). Are there any tunables which I can decrese?
Buffer cache? Queues? How do I disable/remove support for swap space?
