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, just create yourself an account (using the ["Login"] page) and feel free to start editing. This site depends on contributions by you - yes, you! ;)

== Linux-MM contents ==
  * ["LinuxMMDocumentation"]
  * MemoryManagementLinks
  * LinuxKernelMailingLists

== 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...

== News ==
  * 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 Boy, is it empty without the outdated content...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)
