site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev@lists.apple.com User-agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.4 (Windows/20070604) Hi, there, I'm reading an article from Apple "service training". It says "Disk Cache... In versions of the OS previous to X, the amount of cache is set in the Memory control panel. However, it's best to leave the setting at the defualt. Too much or too little cache can adversely affect performance. The optimum setting for disk cache is 32K for every MB of installed RAM." I don't have enough experience on Mac so far. I'm not quite sure if the "Disk Cache" here refers to "swap partition" as Linux. In my experience on Linux, I was told to use as same size as the physical memory - 1GB swap for 1GB memory. "32K for every MB" - it seems to be too small... What do you think? Thanks. - Calvin _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
