> In Linux's open():
> O_NOATIME
> (Since Linux 2.6.8) Do not update the file last access time (st_atime in
> the inode) when the file is read(2). This flag is intended for use by
> indexing or backup programs, where its use can significantly reduce the
> amount of disk activity. This flag may not be effective on all filesystems.
> One example is NFS, where the server maintains the access time.
> So we should do this in our linux-specific DirectIOLinuxDirectory.
> Separately (offtopic), it would be better if this was a LinuxDirectory that
> only uses O_DIRECT when it should :)
> It would be nice to think about an optional modules/native for common
> platforms similar to what tomcat provides
> Its easier to test directories like this now (-Dtests.directory)...
