Hi all,
now I'm using JFS on Gentoo linux (Kernel 2.6.19) box.
This box is really simple (no great cpu, no RAID) just for
testing. I'm curious about memory usage of JFS.

This box has 512 MB RAM and uses less than 20 MB ram before many
disk access, like find command for /usr/portage.
But after that, memory utilization has fairly increased.
In slabtop, jfs_ip seems using memory.

The portage directory has a lots of small files, its size is at most 10kb and
average file size is much more smaller than 10kb.
And number of files is over 120000.


<<before "find /usr/porage">>
$ free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached

<<after "find /usr/portage">>

             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached

JFS(jfs_ip) memory utilization is not small, I think.
Is this memory utilization is normal?
And memory utilization stays at the level, so I don't think memory
leaking, this is correct?
