I never had time to keep the old Linux-MM website updated, so I have converted it all to a wiki. If you run into anything interesting that has to do with the Linux memory management, please feel free to create yourself an account and add it to the site. That includes links to current projects, workarounds for common memory management related problems and links to memory management information. | == Documentation == * ["LinuxMMDocumentation"] contains information on how to tweak the Linux kernel memory management subsystem. * ["LinuxMMInternals"] explains how some of the Linux kernel memory management works. == Projects == Some of the more active current Linux memory management projects are: |
