I never had time to keep the old Linux-MM website updated, so I have converted it all to a wiki. That includes links to current projects, workarounds for common memory management related problems and links to memory management information.
If you want to edit anything on this site, go ahead. Just create yourself an account (using the UserPreferences page) and you can start editing pages. If you are new to wikis, please practice in the WikiSandBox before editing pages with content. This site depends on contributions by you - yes, you! 
The topics on this site are often discussed on the linux-mm mailing list (email majordomo@kvack.org to get subscribed), and on the #mm IRC channel on irc.oftc.net.

AdvancedPageReplacement - brainstorming on how to implement advanced page replacement algorithms in Linux.
NetworkStorageDeadlock - storage over network has a deadlock problem on most operating systems, we should implement a fix.
SwapTokenTuning - the current implementation of the swap token logic is essentially a proof of concept; there is a lot of room for improvement.
[http://linuxcompressed.sourceforge.net/ Compressed Caching] reducing the amount of disk IO that Linux has to do, by compressing currently inactive pages in the page cache. This project has kernel patches available and interesting performance numbers...
PageTrace - a kernel patch and tool to analyze memory access patterns.
- ["MMResearch"] - links to MM related research topics

2005-04-22, over the last few days, I wrote down everything I knew about AdvancedPageReplacement - I'll use this wiki to keep notes while implementing code (RikvanRiel)
2004-12-19, created this wiki, started moving some content across from the old site. Boy, is it empty without the outdated content... (RikvanRiel)
A Wiki is a collaborative site, anyone can contribute and share:
