| * 2006-04-09, thanks to [http://people.redhat.com/duffy/ Maureen Duffy], Linux-MM now has a cute logo. Thank you, Maureen. * 2006-04-09, I changed the site over to the ''navigation'' theme, which is a customized version of the theme used by the [http://new.ffii.org/ FFII], which in turn derives from [http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/DavidLinke/Sinorca4Moin Sinorca]. Now the site has an actual navigation menu, which is wiki editable. Please let me know what you think. (RikvanRiel) * 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 Boy, is it empty without the outdated content...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) |

Projects
Some of the more active current Linux memory management projects are:
[http://code.google.com/p/compcache/ 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
[http://www.yves-saint-laurent-shop.com ysl outlet] deadlock problem.
