Is the author right on this:

http://www.linuxworld.com/site-stories/2002/0416.mainframelinux-p7.html
"Linux memory management assumes control of a machine and so grabs up
free memory for use in I/O buffering. Having multiple Linux instances do
this to independently buffer I/O to the same files resident on a shared
mini-disk not only wastes memory, but dramatically increases the paging
effort."

Or has this already been addressed for Linux on zSeries?

Thanks
Werner
