Projects
Some of the more active current Linux memory management projects are:
CompressedCaching - Reduce I/O by keeping more data in memory.
AdvancedPageReplacement The time needed to swap a single program into memory is ever increasing, so page replacement is becoming more and more important.
NetworkStorageDeadlock - storage over network has a deadlock problem, where it can take memory to free memory.
PageTrace - a kernel patch and tool to analyze memory access patterns.
HugePages - Improving the availability and usability of huge pages
Superpages - Port of Rice University's Superpages to Linux (2.6 kernel).
