It's much better that files left on tmpfs can sent to disk rather tying up physical memory indefinitely. BTW you mean paging, or swap use, rather that swapping. Linux supports only paging, so it can be taken as read that swapping means paging, but FreeBSD supports both. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
