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!
Linux-MM contents

Linux-MM projects
AdvancedPageReplacement - brainstorming on how to implement advanced page replacement algorithms in Linux.
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.
