Which is why you can get a very similar effect when caching your virtual disks; this can be done without any guest modification.Write-through backing and virtual disk cacheing offer a similar effect, but it is far from the same. Can you explain how it differs for the swap case? Maybe I don't understand how tmem preswap works. -- I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this signature is too narrow to contain. _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
